It's due to static electricity build up. The balloons have become charged with electricity and it is the same charge on both balloons (either positive or negative). Opposite charges attract, identical charges repel each other.

When 2 balloons were rubbed with a sock what happens when you put the balloons next to each other?

When two balloons are rubbed with a sock, they become charged with static electricity. When brought close to each other, the like charges repel each other, causing the balloons to push away from each other due to the electrostatic force.


Why do two balloons that have been rubbed on a sweater repel each other?

When balloons are rubbed on a sweater, they become charged with static electricity. The balloons acquire a net negative charge, causing them to repel each other due to their like charges. This phenomenon is known as electrostatic repulsion.


Why do balloons repel each other after they have been rubbed against each other?

It's due to static electricity build up. The balloons have become charged with electricity and it is the same charge on both balloons (either positive or negative). Opposite charges attract, identical charges repel each other.


Will a balloon repel if you blow a stream of air between two balloons that are next to each other?

No, the balloons will not repel each other. Blowing air between the two balloons will create a breeze, but it will not generate enough force to cause the balloons to repel from each other.


And if two pieces of rubbed ebonite are brought close together will they repel or attract each other?

They will repel each other. When ebonite is rubbed, it becomes negatively charged, causing the pieces to repel due to the like charges on each surface.


What will happen if a polythene rod rubbed with duster brought near another polythene rod also rubbed with a duster?

The two polythene rods will repel each other. This is because when the rods are rubbed, they acquire a net positive charge which causes them to repel each other since like charges repel.


What will happen when two balloons are brought together right after they are rubbed on a piece of wool?

When you rub one balloon with wool, and then rub another balloon with wool, we can safely assume that both balloons acquire the same kind of charge. So when you try to bring them together, they'll repel each other (push apart).


What happens if you rub two balloons with wool?

You get two charged balloons, which both stick to the wall but repel each other.


What happens when you rub two balloons on your hair then put them near each other?

When you rub two balloons on your hair, they become charged with static electricity. As a result, the like charges on the balloons repel each other, causing them to move away from each other. This is due to the principle that like charges repel each other.


How did the balloons get attracted when two balloons tied when the balloons rubbed with sweater they were attracted?

When the balloons rub against the sweater, they pick up extra electrons, giving them a negative charge. Similar charges repel each other, so the negatively charged balloons are attracted to the positively charged areas on each other. This causes the balloons to stick together momentarily due to electrostatic forces before the charges eventually spread out and they separate.


What happens when two balloons wit a negative charge are brought near each other?

When two balloons with a negative charge are brought near each other, they will repel each other because like charges repel. This is because the negative charges on the balloons have a mutual force of repulsion, causing them to push away from each other.


What would happen if you put two positively charged balloons together?

You then have two balloons in very nearly the same place.
