What force is counteracting the attractive force of gravity on the pieces of paper?

This depends on what the pieces of paper are up to. - If the pieces of paper are at rest on a surface, the normal (perpendicular) force of that surface is counteracting the attractive force of gravity. - If the pieces of paper are in the air, some aerodynamic forces are counteracting the attractive force of gravity, but only the component of the aerodynamic forces that is directed in the opposite direction of gravity. (That is, if you throw the pieces of paper UP in the air aerodynamics and gravity will do work in the same direction, and no force will counteract gravity.) This system is not in equillibrium and the pieces of paper will sooner or later fall to the ground. - It should be possible to counteract the attracting force of gravity by giving the pieces of paper an electrostatic charge and holding an object of opposite charge above them. This can be done by rubbing the pieces of paper against an inflated rubber balloon, the papers will stick to the balloon. Note that for this to work, something will have to counteract the force of gravity on the balloon. This can be done by suspending it from the roof or holding it in your hand. Something would then have to counteract the attractive force of gravity on the roof (the walls) or you (whatever you are standing on)... and so on ad infinitum...

What are the properties of a wooden ruler?

The properties of a wooden ruler are: It has density, it can be flexible (the ones in the US are), it is light and it can help you in measuring measurable stuff. e.g. paper, height of water etc.


What is the effect of a paper clip on to a magnet?

Well, there are two poles to a magnet. A negative one and a positive one. Since metals are good conductors of charge and the paper clip is a metal object, they will attract. The charge of the paperclip is opposite the charge to one of the poles of the magnet.


What kind of force can make a paper clip cling to a comb?

That is the static charge, which make a paper clip cling to a comb.

Why does a comb attract pieces of paper even when it is not charged?

Nope, this does not contradict coulomb's law. The reason why the pieces of paper are neutral is that they contain equal amount of positive and negative charges and so they cancel each other out. When you bring a charged plastic comb to the pieces of paper, the charge opposite to that of the plastic comb will be brought to a part of the surface of the paper where the plastic comb is. Opposite charges attract each other, and since you're holding the comb, the pieces of paper will be attracted to the comb.

Why can rubber rubbed with wool attract small bits of paper?

The reason why the pieces of paper are neutral is that they contain equal amount of positive and negative charges and so they cancel each other out. When you bring a charged plastic comb to the pieces of paper, the charge opposite to that of the plastic comb will be brought to a part of the surface of the paper where the plastic comb is. Opposite charges attract each other, and since you're holding the comb, the pieces of paper will be attracted to the comb.
