How does a balloon stay on a wall?
It depends on how long it takes for the charge to diminish so that it can no longer hold the balloon against gravity. Principal factors will be the conductivity of the balloon's material, and the humidity of the air.
Why does a rubber balloon coated with aluminum takes longer to shrink than a rubber balloon without an aluminum coating?
Rubber is a compound with large molecules loosely bound by hydrogen bonding and is holey as it is stretched. Coating a balloon with aluminum which has atoms regularly spaced, forms a cohesive layer with less space between particles and less holes.
How will two positive charged objects interact?
Opposites attract
When a charged object polarized another why is there an attraction between the object?
The charged body will induce a separation of charges in the uncharged body.The charged body will induce a separation of charges in the uncharged body.The charged body will induce a separation of charges in the uncharged body.The charged body will induce a separation of charges in the uncharged body.
What happens when two negatively charged balloons are pushed together?
-- There is a force of attraction between them. -- If the charges were big enough, a spark would jump between the balloons and equalize the charges. -- That would require a huge charge, so there's no spark. But if you allow the balloons to touch, then electrons eventually flow from the negative one to the positive one, and the charges equalize.
Why a charged balloon does notattract a person's hair if the balloon is far from person's head?
The electric Field repels it but the positively charged balloon is attracted to the negatively charged hair. (opposites attract)
What happens when you try to stick a charged balloon an a metal doorknob?
they will attract
Why the charged balloon wiill be attracted to the charged glass rod?
If charge on the balloon is induced due to the charge of the glass rod then there will be opposite charge and so balloon gets attracted by the rod. Unlike charges do attract each other
Why does rubbing your hair with a balloon cause static electricity?
This has to do with the charge of the objects. Positively charged items stick to negatively charged items (think "opposites attract"). Though objects like hair and balloons are generally neutral (without a charge) and do not attract anything, this can be changed through the transfer of electrons. Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles that can be transferred between items through contact. When you rub a balloon on your hair, the contact between your hair and the balloon allows electrons to be transferred, known as the triboelectric effect. Some materials are more likely to gain electrons and become more negative, while others are more likely to lose electrons and become more positive. In the case of hair and a balloon, the electrons are transferred from your hair to the balloon, so the balloon becomes negative. Now that electrons have been transferred, your hair and the balloon are of opposite charged and attract one another; therefore, your hair sticks to the balloon. Before the balloon contacts the hair, they both have a stable balance of electrons and protons. Once the balloon is rubbed on the hair, it takes electrons from the hair. Thus leaving the hair positively charged and the balloon negatively charged. Once the balloon is pulled away the hair sticks to it. This happens because opposite charges attract and since the hair was positively charged, and the balloon is negatively charged, they attract.
Why does a balloon stick to the celing when rubbed?
1. Rubbing the balloon to your hair causes the balloon to "steal" electrons from your hair. 2.The balloon has a buildup of electron so it has a negative charge. your hair has lost electrons so it becomes positively charged. 3.Because opposites attract the negatively charged balloon will stick or if there are enough electrons on the balloon they will try and "Jump" the wall and will make a small zap by:Zimran Reubin
What happens when a balloon with a negative charge is brought to the surface of a wall?
i dont know ask your friends at school. if your old, live with it. A Negative Charge or a collection of negative charges will repel other negative charges. A negatively charged balloon will therefore repel those few negative charges in a wall that are capable of moving a little bit. That area of the wall close to the negatively charged balloon will therefore become positively charged. A positively charged wall will attract a negatively charged balloon and the two will stick together.
How can you charge a balloon?
it has a positive charge so the negative item attract to it if it is light enough
A balloon will stick to a wooden wall if the balloon is charged?
either negatively or positively charged.
How do the poles of a magnet attract or repel?
Unlike poles attract and like poles repel. This applies to charged particles and magnets alike.
How might you use a balloon with a negative charge to find out whether the charge on another balloon is positive or negative?
If you move a negatively-charged balloon close to another balloon, if it moves towards the first balloon, it is positively-charged. If it moves away, it is negatively charged.
What would happen if a negatively charged balloon touched metal?
Opposite charges attract each other. It makes no difference what kind of objects happen to be carrying the charges.
What are gelatin mountains?
static electricity, which is what makes your socks stick to your clothes in the dryer, can be a powereful force. When you rub a piece of wool on a latex balloon, the balloon becomes charged with static electricity. If you hold the balloon near a pile of unflaverd gelitin, the gelitin becomes charged as well, but with the opposite charge. Things that have opposite charges attract, so the geletin starts to creep twords the balloon, trying to make contact
