If you rub a polythene rod with a cloth will it become magnetic?
No, it will not become magnetic. It will become electrically charged.
What happens when iron rod rubbed with wool cloth?
The iron rod becomes shinier and the wool cloth wears out. If you rub the same wool cloth on a hard rubber rod, the rod will become charged with static electricity and you will be able to pick up small bits of paper with it---whoopee!
Will rubbing a glass rod with a wool cloth create static electricity?
Yes it does when you rub the glass rod against the wool cloth the rod becomes negatively charged...therefore attracting the wool cloth
Does a balloon have static electricity?
Only if you rub it on a piece of cloth.
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.
If you rub a polythene rod with a cloth will it become magnetic?
No, it will not become magnetic. It will become electrically charged.
What happens when you rub an acetate strip with tissue paper and then hold the strip near running water?
If you rub an acetate rod with a cloth electrons are transferred from the rod to the cloth and the rod becomes negatively charged and the cloth becomes positively charged.
What happens when you rub vinyl with wool cloth?
You build a charge when rubbing vinyl with a wool cloth. The wool cloth is very weak in holding electrons so when you rub it with the ebonite rod the electrons transfer onto the rod. The rod is negatively charged (assuming that the rod was neutrally charged). The wool becomes positively charged (assuming that the wool was neutrally charged)

If you rub a balloon with wool does it become negatively or positively charged?
It becomes negatively charged because Wool readily gives away its electrons.
What happens when you rub ebonite silk with a wool cloth?
You build a charge The wool cloth is very weak in holding electrons so when you rub it with the ebonite rod the electrons transfer onto the rod. The rod is negativly charged (assuming that the rod was neutrally charged). The wool becomes positivly charged (assuming that the wool was neutrally charged)
What happens when you rub an ebonite stick with a wool cloth?
Electrons are tranferred to the stick, causing it to take on a negative charge
Why a ruller will attract pieces of papers?
when you rub the plastic ruler on e.g. a yellow duster it takes the electrons (which is the negative charge) from the yellow duster and the plastic ruler becomes negatively charged. The paper has both protons and electrons the protons are positively charged. and very much like a magnet the negative is attracted to the positive hence the paper sticks to the ruler Hastings Tarrant
What happens to the rod when it is rub by nylon?
It depends on what the rod is made of. For example, if it's a glass rod the glass will lose electrons to the nylon and become positively charged, and the nylon will gain electrons and become negatively charged. If the rod is made of aluminum or steel, the rod will gain electrons from the nylon and become negatively charged, and the nylon will become positively charged.
How do you clean sandstone?
DON'T USE WATER!!!!!! use a dry cloth and rub gently DO NOT RUB HARD!!! if you rub hard it will disintergrate!!!!!
If you rub a coin briskly between your fingersit will not seem to become charged by frictionwhy?
because coin is made up of insulated metal thats why coin cannot charged
