Electricidad estática

The video explains the difference between static electricity and electric current. Static electricity involves charges that do not flow, unlike electric current where charges move through a medium like a wire. It also describes how static charges can be easily generated in insulating materials, such as by rubbing a balloon with skin or fabric.
