I think they attract because if the charges repelled, they would push back the charges to create a magnetic field.

What do the lines around the finger and doorknob represent?

The lines around the finger and doorknob represent the tactile experiences of the speaker in the poem. They emphasize the physical sensations and connections between the speaker and the objects in the poem, providing a sensory richness to the overall imagery.


The spark that jumps to your finger after walking on a rug is an electric?

The spark that jumps to your finger after walking on a rug is an example of static electricity. This occurs when friction between the rug and your shoes causes a build-up of electric charge that discharges when you touch a conductor, like a metal doorknob.


Why does the lasers of a plasma ball follow your finger?

The lasers of a plasma ball follow your finger because your touch creates a path of least resistance for the plasma to travel along. The plasma responds to the conductivity of your skin and is attracted to it, creating the visible effect of the lasers following your finger.


A negatively charged rod is brought near a metal can that rests on a wooden box. You touch the opposite side of the can momentarily with your finger. If you remove your finger before removing rod what?

The negatively charged rod induces a positive charge at the side of the can closest to it, attracting negative charges to the opposite side. When you touch the opposite side with your finger, electrons flow from your finger to neutralize the positive charge. If you remove your finger before removing the rod, the positive charge induced by the rod will redistribute, making the can net-neutral again.


How is static electricity created?

Static ElectricityThe discharge of electricity between your finger and the doorknob is in principle the same as the discharge from a cloud to a tree during a storm. It occurs because of the general diffusive principle in nature (entropy) -- that is, things try to balance out to equal distribution. If you have a lot of negative charge in one place and a lack of negative charge in another (a positive charge), it will eventually "discharge" or equalize the charges. This is a "lightning bolt" or a "static bolt" depending on how much charge we're talking about.In a cloud, lots of dust in the cloud is churning around and negative charges accumulate. The earth is the ultimate "equalizer" in nature, so enough negative charge will jump to the ground.In the same way, when you rub your feet on the carpet, you push negative charges on or off of you; by building up this charge in your body, you cause a static jump the next time you touch something "grounded" (i.e., in contact with the earth).Static Eletricity is created by rubbing a material on to plastic or another type of cloth.

Nesreen walks across a carpet in her socks and then reaches for the doorknob Her hand contains positive charges What will happen to the positive charges in the doorknob just before she touches it?

The positive charges in Nesreen's hand will repel the positive charges in the doorknob, causing a slight accumulation of positive charges in the area of the doorknob closest to her hand. This repulsion will create a small spark when she touches the doorknob, equalizing the charge between her hand and the doorknob.

Is it gay if a boy likes to finger himself?

No. You are gay if your sexual orientation (the sex you are attracted to) is the same as your sex.


Are you gay if during sex you like a finger in your butt?

I don't think so. "Gay" refers to being attracted to the same gender - for example, if you are a man, being attracted to men.

What does the master eye do?

Tells the slave eye what to do. Seriously, in shooting it is called the "dominant eye" and it merely means the eye that your mind prefers to use. Here's how to determine which is your dominant. Pick a target, such as a doorknob. Point your index finger at it. Use the hand you prefer to use, right or left. Now close/cover one eye without moving your finger. If you're still pointing straight at the doorknob, then you've found your dominant eye. Most people are right hand/ right eye, some are left/left, and ever rarer are those who are opposite right hand/left eye or left hand/right eye. Good luck.
