What Is It?> Hello, ladies and generators. My name is Surge. And I get a “charge” out of electricity. Actually so do you! You, a human being, are full of electricity right now! It’s running all over your body, from head to toe. Yet your body doesn’t have a single wire, bulb, or <#5962,11><!battery>. The electricity is in your nervous system, your brain and nerves.
Electricity is made up of tiny bits called charges. Charges push and pull on things. On a cold, dry day, charges can even make your hair stand on end! Electric charges can also move from place to place. Right now, charges are most likely zipping through wires in your home.
Like light and sound, electricity is a type of energy. And energy makes things happen. When electric charges push and pull, they can make clothes stick to your legs. They can turn on a television set. They can even start the engine of a car! What else can electrical energy do?
