How are electrically charged particles formed?
The basic charged particles are the proton (positive) and electron (negative). Normally the electrostatic force of attraction keeps them together within atoms and molecules, and in this state they are electrically neutral. Objects become charged when there is an excess or a shortage of electrons, produced for example by rubbing a dry cloth, or by the air currents in a thunder cloud.
How rubbing the balloon on your hair and your hair will stick onto the balloon?
because she her hair was the negative charged into the balloon which it caused it to stick to the balloon....does that answer your question...
What is the rubbing force that strips electrons or a material and makes it charged?
The rubbing force that strips electrons or a material and makes it charged is friction!i
What is the Effect of rubbing glass with silk rubber?
on rubbing glass with silk, the former one becomes positively charged whereas the other negatively charged.
Can damp clothes be electrically charged by rubbing together?
No
When rubbing two materials together does it knock off positive or negative charges?
negative
When an acetate strip is charged by a rubbing does it acquire a positive charge or a negative charge?
A charged acetate strip would be negatively charged. So, it would acquire positive charge to become neutral.
Why does a charged glass rod attract charged plastic straw?
it is becuase when a glas rod charged by rubbing a cloth it aquires positive charge and when a plastic straw is charged by rubbing a cloth it aquires negative charge. Therefore a charged glass rod attracts a charged plastic rod.
How does rubbing make plastic charged?
It creates friction which, in turn, creates static electricity therefore giving the plastic a positive charge.
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

How does a balloon get a charge from rubbing it on the hair?
Friction pulls electrons from the hair to the balloon. This makes the hair positive, and the balloon negative.
What happens when charging by rubbing?
Static electricity is the result of creating a charge by rubbing two objects together. The positively charged objected with accepted electrons from the negatively charged item giving it an electric charge.
