What is a charge on a rubber rod?
an electrostatic negative charge
How does lighting discharge?
When there is a sufficiently strong electrostatic charge, it can cause air molecules to ionize, which are then electrically conductive and create a pathway for the discharge of the electrostatic charge.
What is cobalt's strength of electrostatic force?
The strength of the electrostatic force depends on the electric charge. If you have a block of cobalt - or of just about any other material for that matter - you can put a positive charge, a negative charge, or no charge on it; and the charge can be large or small.
What will be the direction of charge if the gravitational force is equal to electrostatic force?
charge will be suspended it will not have any direction
How does an electrostatic spray paint gun work?
An electrostatic spray gun operates with an electrical charge. A wire is connected to the part being sprayed, and an electrical charge is applied. The gun has an opposite charge. When the material is sprayed it is attracted to the part because of the charges.
Does nylon have an electrostatic charge?
when your clothes rub against your skin an electrostatic charge is made.
What is electrostatic charges?
Charge can also be present on insulators and because these materials do not allow the charge to flow, this is called electrostatic charge

What does an eletroscope do?
It detects electrostatic charge. (Static electricity).
How do particles with the same charge interact?
Particles with the same charge will interact by electrostatic repulsion.
What is happening when you walk across a carpet and receive a shock when you touch a metal object?
Walking across a nylon carpet can cause charge separation between you and the carpet. You take on an electrostatic charge as a result. Touching a door knob allows that charge you accumulated to neutralize via a discharge event. The static discharge is the electric shock.
Give an example of where electrostatic charge might be a hazard?
You will get an electrostatic shock if you are electrically charged and you touch a good conductor of electricity.
