Rubbing an insulator against a non insulator causes the build up of electrons which is known as static electricity, the electrons take the easiest route to earth, that's why if you touch any thing that is earthed you may get an electric shock :)

What kind of charge does rubbing one object against another cause?
static elecrticity
What is the transfer of charge from one object to another by rubbing one is called?
Friction
What causes static electricity to build up?
A static charge builds up when two things are rubbing together.
What is easiest way of create an electric charge?
just by rubbing an object e.g: rubbing hands, rubbing stones, to create a charge
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.

How does a generator produce static electricity?
Static generators, such as the Wimshurst and the Van deGraaff, both separatecharges by rubbing/scraping one surface against another. They differ in howthey store the charge before the zzapp occurs.
What is the charge when rubbing styrofoam with cloth?
A static charge of electricity will be the result.
What charge develops on rubbing plastic straw with polythene?
Static electrical charge.
Why do you get an electric shook when you brush against another person?
Static electricity is an imbalance of electric charges on a surface of a material. The charge stays there until it connects to another surface. It makes a shock because one of the surfaces has a high resistance to electrical currents.
How can you charge an object negatively with only the help of a postively charge object?
By rubbing them together.
Which form of energy is produced by rubbing?
Friction is created by rubbing two objects with different electrical charge.
What type of charge do you get by rubbing a balloon in your hair?
negative
