When the vinyl is rubbed with wool the electrons transferred to the vinyl. what kind of charge is on the pith ball when the charged vinyl repels it?

When the vinyl is rubbed with wool, it gains electrons and becomes negatively charged. The pith ball, which is initially neutral, will have its electrons repelled by the negatively charged vinyl, causing the pith ball to become positively charged due to the lack of electrons. As a result, the negatively charged vinyl repels the positively charged pith ball.
