How is static electricity used when spraying crops with insecticide?

Static electricity is a charge built up by a range of actions like rubbing a polythene rod against a duster, we can see the effects by rubbing a balloon against our hair and the negatives will move to the balloon but will not move this is what makes static electricity different to the normal electricity in our houses, cars and other electrical items. Static electricity and paint… static electricity can be used by mechanics to respray cars this can be done by charging the paint negative and the car positive and the paint will arc towards it when doing this to a bike it is unnecessary to turn the bike around as the paint will coat both sides. its the same thing one thing is charged positive and the other negative sothey will attract! hope this helps


A plastic rod is rubbed with a dry cloth how does the rod become negatively charged?

This happens because the negative electrons on the duster move to the polythene rod. Despite this, the rod still has some positive electrons meaning it should be called an unbalanced negatively charged rod. Hope this helps XD

Why a ruller will attract pieces of papers?

when you rub the plastic ruler on e.g. a yellow duster it takes the electrons (which is the negative charge) from the yellow duster and the plastic ruler becomes negatively charged. The paper has both protons and electrons the protons are positively charged. and very much like a magnet the negative is attracted to the positive hence the paper sticks to the ruler Hastings Tarrant


What charge does a acetate rod acquire when rubbed with a duster?

The acetate rod loses electrons and becomes positively charged.


What happens to a perspex rod when it is rubbed by a duster?

Both are originally have equal electrons and protons. After rubbing, electrons move to the duster, from the rod. The duster, as it gains electrons, has more electrons than protons, therefore becoming negatively charged. The rod, losing electrons, becomes negatively charged. then, the rod is able to momentarily pick up little bits of paper for short periods at a time.
