Because the electrons from the Nylon cloth or silk are being passed to the light bulb
Quartz is a common type of white rock that can spark when rubbed together due to its hardness and crystal structure. It is composed of silicon dioxide and can generate static electricity when two pieces are rubbed together, creating sparks.
A solid piece of glass shaped like a wedge is called a prism. Prisms are often used in optics to disperse light into its constituent colors or to reflect light at different angles.
You would use a data logger with sensors such as a thermometer, hygrometer, anemometer, pH meter, or a light sensor to measure abiotic factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, pH level, and light intensity in a given environment.
OPAQUE means light transmission is blocked; essentially zero light transmission. A steel plate is opaque. A black piece of cardboard is opaque. TRANSLUCENT means some light gets through but it is scattered in passage so images do not get through. A frosted glass sheet is translucent. Shower curtains are often translucent.
A "Mountain" or "Hill" is a high piece of land. Plateau.
No, sounds like a piece of burned out filament moving around. Does it light up?
A 'metal filing ' is a tiny piece of metal that is rubbed off from a large piece by a file.
If you rubbed a piece of fluorite against a piece of feldspar, neither mineral would really change. Both minerals are relatively hard and have different chemical compositions, so they would not interact in a way that would result in a noticeable reaction.
No, they will chew endlessly on anything put in their environment and will inadvertently ingest pieces of nylon.
It uses modern technology to give better efficiency. A filament bulb has an incandescent (hot) piece of tungsten wire, which produces light but also heat. A fluorescent bulb uses a different process to produce more light and less heat.
The ancient Greek scientist who discovered this phenomenon was Thales of Miletus. He observed that amber could generate static electricity when rubbed with fur, leading to the attraction of light objects like feathers and straws.
When a straw is rubbed with a piece of paper, it acquires a positive charge due to the transfer of electrons from the paper. Two positively charged straws will repel each other. However, when a straw is rubbed with a sheet of paper, it acquires a negative charge, and opposite charges attract, resulting in the straws being attracted to each other.
Nylon melts. Think about the end of a piece of nylon rope, it is better to burn it than to cut it to the length you want. From Wikipedia: Used in carpets and nylon stockings; Melts instead of burning; Used in many military applications; Good specific strength
The wood changes color
The silk picked up positive charges.
the # 5 would be scratched
Yes, but doubling the voltage on any piece of equipment is a sure way of destroying that equipment.
