Want this question answered?
the electrons get ripped off one object and held by the other The rubbing moves electrons to the object that holds them more tightly.
friction
ELECTRONS
When a charged object touches another object. Electrons can be transferred through friction. Electrons can also be transferred through contact and conduction. You can charge a neutral object by contact with a charged object. Charging by contact happens when electrons move from one object to a neutral object.
static electricity
This could be a description of a dipole, as of a ferromagnet where the fields at the poles are opposite.

electrons
The measurement from one end of an object to the other end of the object is called the length of the object.

It is because the flow of electrons go from the object to the earth
It gains electrons. The only charged particles which can freely move from one object to another are electrons. Electrons have negative charge. So adding electrons gives a negative charge, and removing electrons gives the object a positive charge.
This is the electrostatic attraction.
The battery pushes electrons out one side, and attracts them back to the other side. Without a closed circuit, the electrons can flow for a brief time, but they would quickly accumulate on some connected object. Since electrons repel one another, they will quickly come to the point where no further electrons can get into an object.
