When a rubber rod is rubbed with wool the rod becomes negatively charged. what can you conclude about the magnitude of the wool's charge after the rubbing process?

Equal amount of positive charge in the woolReason: Just before rubbing both rod and wool are neutral. Now as we rub the rod with wool then loosely bound electrons get migrated right from wool to the rod. So rod gets excess electrons and balance between equal positive and negative goes off. So it gets negatively charged. If so then wool as it has lost electrons right from balancing it has to be positively charged
