[–] bull@aussie.zone 8 points 3 years ago (3 children) Red energy ad: "you can't see it (electricity), you can't reach out and touch it" Both untrue.

Neither electrons in motion (electric current) nor excess charge carriers (static electricity) are visible. Visible sparks are ionised air, not the electricity itself. Whether you can touch electricity is a bit of a weird question. You can touch an object carrying a static charge, and you can touch a conductor. But are you touching the “electricity”? It’s a weird semantic argument. permalink fedilink source parent
