How is a positive charge usually given to a neutral object?
Friction will give a positive charge to a neutral object by conduction. This is done by rubbing two different materials together.
What measures are to be taken by the government to reduce consumption of plastic?
the government can produce lesser plastic bags. and charge extra for the bags we use during shopping. they should produce more paper or cloth bags that can be used for shopping.
How can build up of electrostatic charge be prevented?
Through the use of an earthing conductor, for example the black plastic strips that hang from the rear of a car.
Why is hydrogen chloride polar?
Hydrogen chloride is non polar because in molecules such as (hcl) the electron pair of bond is pulled closer to more electroneative chlorine atom.As a result of this the chlorine atom develops a tiny negative charge,where as the hydrogen atom develops a tiny positive charge.The hydrogen chloride molecule has a slight separation of charge within it and describe as a polar molecule
How do cold fronts produce stormy weather?
The cold air wedges underneath a large warm airmass. This causes the warm air to rise up and condensate. The action of the water droplets rubbing together produces a static charge which creates lightning in the storm. The water droplets fall as rain.
Does rubbing a polythene rod with a duster take away positive charge from the cloth?
no
Why it is easy to charge polythene by rubbing but not copper?
When you rub plastic, you transfer electrons from one material to the other. ... Because plastic is an insulator, the electrons cannot flow through it so they effectively get stuck there they are static
What will happen if a polythene rod rubbed with dry woolen cloth brought near another polythene rod also rubbed with a dry woolen cloth?
Both rods acquired charge of the same polarity during the rubbing process, so there will be a force of repulsion between them.
How does rubbing make plastic charged?
It creates friction which, in turn, creates static electricity therefore giving the plastic a positive charge.
What is easiest way of create an electric charge?
just by rubbing an object e.g: rubbing hands, rubbing stones, to create a charge
Can water get attracted to anything?
If you charge up a neutral rod of plastic by rubbing it in material and hold it next to low powered water the water will get attracted to the rod.
What is the charge when rubbing styrofoam with cloth?
A static charge of electricity will be the result.
How to charge an object by friction?
An object can be charged by friction when rubbed against another surface such asa) polythene rod rubbed against a woollen cloth.This occurred because the woollen cloth lost some of it negative charges when it was rubbed, the negative charges was then transferred to the polythene rod. Now the polythene rod has been charge by friction.For proof... after it has been charged,place the polythene rod next to some *very small bits of paper and see what happens.
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 do you build up static charge?
on yourself: on a dry (not humid) day (usually in winter), rub your feet wearing synthetic soled shoes, on the carpet, your body will build up static charge which you can discharge by grounding to other objects. you can build a static charge on a plastic rod by rubbing it with fur. air masses build static charges by rubbing against each other. these are just a few ways.
How can you charge an object negatively with only the help of a postively charge object?
By rubbing them together.
Which form of energy is produced by rubbing?
Friction is created by rubbing two objects with different electrical charge.
