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.

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)
What happens if you rub grease on paper?
The paper becomes semi-transparent.
What happens if you rub sandpaper on your nipples?
It will just hurt a lot, so I advise you not to do that.
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 wool and amber together and why?
Nothing happens. I have amber and wear it with wool and other clothing. At the very most there is friction.
What happens when you rub two pieces of nylon on paper and put them together?
Static electricity, built up in the nylon, will form a spark.
When the perspex rod is rubbed with nylon and the rod becomes positively charge what charge will be on the nylon?
a negative charge
What happens if you rub 2 balloons with nylon and bring them closer together?
they repel each other because they have built up a negative charge.
What happens when rub an ebonite with a wool cloth?
The ebonite rod will gather a static electric charge, as electrons are transferred.

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!
How do you care for a fly fishing rod?
Rub it Good
Does nylon have an electrostatic charge?
when your clothes rub against your skin an electrostatic charge is made.
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.
How do you repair a crack in a plastic radiator?
weld it with nylon rod using iron plastic welder.
If you rub a copper rod rather than a polythene rod the copper rod will not stay charged why not?
because copper cannot conduct static energy but polythene can.
What happens to nylon when you burn?
If you burn nylon, it simply turns into a black solid, whose appearance will be like that of carbon
