Why does your head load up with electrons when you rub a balloon against your head?
Static electricity and negative charges
When you rub a balloon on your hair what goes from your hair to the balloon?
Electrons move between the hair and the balloon.
When you rub a balloon on your hairwhat go's to the balloon?
The friction between two different materials in the right combination (this case your hair and a rubber balloon) causes free valence electrons (the electrons in the outer most orbit around an atom) to move from one item to the other, causing an excess of electrons (negative charge) in one and a deficit (positive) in the other. When put near the paper with an opposite charge, the paper will jump to the balloon. Opposites attract.
What is a name when you rub your balloon on your head?
Statis electricity
Why does the balloon stick to the wall when you rub it on your head?
because it is electricity
Why does a balloon stick to the wall after you rub it against your hair?
It has electro static cells that form when re-peatedly rubbed wich creates friction ending with a attraction to the item of your choice. When you rub the balloon you create a static charge that is positive and the attraction that makes it stick to the wall is because the wall has a negative charge and like poles attract.
When you rub a balloon on your head what kind of charge is created?
A Static Charge.
What happens when you rub a balloon on your hair?
Your hair gives off electrons to the balloon and when you put the balloon close to your hair, it will go up and you can hear the static electricity.
What is static electricity produced by?
example you take a balloon and you rub it against your hair it will cause the balloon to lose or gain electrons which that mommnet it makes static
What is static electricity produced by friction?
example you take a balloon and you rub it against your hair it will cause the balloon to lose or gain electrons which that mommnet it makes static
Why does a balloon stick to the wall when you rub it on your head?
electrons are transferred from your hair to the balloon . so ballon gets a negative charge . so there is a transfer of energy when you rub your hair with balloon and static electricity is producedP.S. : HAIR SHOULD BE DRY
Why a balloon now negatively charged?
When you rub a balloon onto your hair or piece of clothing, the balloon collects the electrons (negative charge) from the hair or clothing you rubbed it on. The balloon now has more electrons (negative charge) than protons (positive charge) making it have a negative charge. The hair or clothing has more protons than electrons making it have a positive charge.
