Archivo: Cat demonstrating static cling with styrofoam peanuts upscayled 4x

Descripción: Styrofoam peanuts clinging to a cat's fur due to static electricity. The triboelectric effect causes an electrostatic charge to build up on the fur due to the cat's motions. The electric field of the charge causes polarization of the molecules of the styrofoam due to electrostatic induction, resulting in a slight attraction of the light plastic pieces to the charged fur. This effect is also the cause of static cling in clothes. Image cropped losslessly from File:Cat and styrofoam – electrostatic charge (235112299).jpg using cropgtk. Upscaled using upscayl.
