Answer:

when electric chargers build up on objects is called Static Electricity

Step-by-step explanation:

When electric charges are built up on objects which can happen due to rubbing or pulling apart of some materials, we get positive charges (+) get collected on surface of one material and negative charges (-) on another. These objects stay charged for some time till they aren't transferred elsewhere through interaction.

This electrically charged surfaces creates a shock type effect when touched. This charging of surfaces of objects due to accumulation of electrons or protons is known as static electricity or static discharge.
