A rubbed balloon will stick to a wooden wall which demonstrated charge?

A rubbed balloon will stick to a wooden wall demonstrating the charge of static electricity. The friction of the rubbing of the balloon causes the charge to build.

Why does an negativity charged balloon stick to a wall?

When you rub the balloon on your hair, or on another similar surface, the balloon becomes negatively charged. The wall itself doesn't have any particular charge, and doesn't conduct electricity. When you place the balloon on the wall, the molecules in the wall polarize, that is, positive and negative charges in the molecule separate and go to opposite sides of the molecule. Opposite charges attract, and like charges repel, and since the negative charges in the molecules are pushed away from the balloon and the positive ones are pulled towards it, the attraction force is greater than the repulsion force and the balloon is held to the wall.


Why does a balloon that has has static electric charge stick to the wall?

A balloon that has a static electric charge can stick to a wall because opposite charges attract each other. The balloon carries a negative charge, while the wall carries a positive charge (due to electrons being transferred from the wall to the balloon). This attraction between the opposite charges causes the balloon to stick to the wall.

Would a negatively charged balloon stick to a metal wall as easily as to a wooden wall?

Yes, because metal conduct electricity.

How can a positive balloon stick to a neutral wall?

All matter contains positive protons and negative electrons. When you bring a positively charged balloon close to a neutral wall, the wall becomes polarized. The electrons in atoms move colser to the balloon, making the near side of the wall seem negatively charged and farther components seem positive charged. This has a net attractive force on the balloon.


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.

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

Why a balloon that has a static electric charge will stick to a wall?

This is because on the exact same place you rubbed the balloon on it will have electrons wich made it stick on the wall.


A hypothesis about wye does a balloon stick to wall after you rub it against your hair?

The balloon is electrified by transferring elect rons from/to your hair. This electrified balloon then attracts electrons on the wall and this attraction force causes the balloon to stick to the wall until the charges decay form leakage to the wall or air.
