  • Abstract
    Electricity is a valuable asset for society. It can be naturally generated by the differences in temperatures or wind action on clouds, by the movement of air over conductive wires, by sliding a conductive body across an isolated/nonconductive surface, and displays its presence by static or lightning discharges. It can also be generated by man-made electromechanical machinery driven by water or air flow, photosynthesis devices, or fuel cells, and its presence is displayed by providing light for security in the dark, heat for comfort in the cold, or movement for people to work or facilitate production in the workplace.
