Final answer:
Static electricity can jump from one object to another, causing both static cling and electrical discharge (shock), hence the correct answer is C) Both A and B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Static electricity can jump from the charged object to another object, causing both static cling (objects sticking together) and electrical discharge (and a shock!). Therefore, the correct answer is C) Both A and B. Static cling is when two objects stick together due to static electricity, which can be seen when clothes stick together in a dryer or when a balloon sticks to a wall after being rubbed on your hair. An electrical discharge is a sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects, caused by the contact, an electrical short, or dielectric breakdown. This is what happens when you feel a shock after walking across a carpet and then touching a doorknob.
