The ebonite rod will gather a static electric charge, as electrons are transferred.
Electrons are tranferred to the stick, causing it to take on a negative charge
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)

Rubbing ebonite against fur can create a static charge on the ebonite due to the transfer of electrons between the two materials. This can lead to the ebonite gaining a negative charge and the fur gaining a positive charge.
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!
Nothing happens. I have amber and wear it with wool and other clothing. At the very most there is friction.

Yes, rubbing a glass rod with a wool cloth can create static electricity by transferring electrons between the two materials. This process causes the glass to become positively charged and the wool to become negatively charged, resulting in static electricity buildup.
Rubbing a ruler with a cloth creates friction, which transfers some of the ruler's electrons to the cloth, giving the cloth a negative charge. This process is called triboelectrification.
When you rub a copper rod with a cloth, electrons are transferred between the two materials due to friction. This can cause a buildup of static electricity on the rod, giving it a slight negative charge.
