How Fast Does a Charge Decay?
There's a phrase that has been bothering me for years: "How do you remove static electricity?" At one level the question makes sense. Everybody involved in electrostatics understands what the inquirer is trying to ask. But at a physics level, as well as a linguistic one, the phrasing is more dubious. A better expression of the question would be "How do you neutralize the field from static charges?"
