A tall enough stack of it can. Paper isn't a great conductor, but almost anything is a better conductor than air is.
Yes, magnets attract paper clips because paper clips are made of a magnetic material like iron. The magnetic field produced by the magnet causes the paper clips to be attracted to it.
A charged polythene rod will attract paper. When the rod is charged, it develops an electric field that exerts a force on the charged particles in the paper, causing the paper to be attracted to the rod.
An iron comb does not attract pieces of paper because iron is not a material that is naturally magnetic. In order to attract pieces of paper, the comb would need to be made of a magnetic material such as iron that has been magnetized.
No, a steel spoon rubbed with a woolen cloth will not attract bits of paper. This is because the steel spoon is not charged with static electricity through the rubbing process. The woolen cloth, however, can become charged with static electricity due to the friction between the wool fibers. This static charge is not transferred to the steel spoon in a way that would attract bits of paper.
Iron is not magnetized naturally, so it does not have a magnetic field strong enough to attract pieces of paper. For iron to attract paper, it would need to be magnetized or have a magnetic field induced in it.
Yes, it is more likely you could be struck by lightening when stood in water as you'll tend to be the highest point to attract the lightening strike
Any metal/moist projecting material that can attract the lightening charge.
Yes, magnets attract paper clips because paper clips are made of a magnetic material like iron. The magnetic field produced by the magnet causes the paper clips to be attracted to it.
the teeth catch the paper
A charged polythene rod will attract paper. When the rod is charged, it develops an electric field that exerts a force on the charged particles in the paper, causing the paper to be attracted to the rod.
No, a magnet cannot pull through paper because paper is not a magnetic material and does not attract to magnets. Magnets can only attract materials that contain iron, nickel, or cobalt.
Because lightening always "aims" for the highest point and trees usually fall into this catagory. This is why buildings have lightening rods. They attract the lightening and transport the charge down their length to run safely into the earth. However, if you are surrounded by taller objects (bigger trees or buildings forinstance) you can run under a tree to simply get out of the rain...
Magnets attract iron but not paper because paper has no magnetism.
Yes.

No, a magnet will not be able to attract a paper clip that has a cardboard between them. The cardboard will act as a barrier, preventing the magnetic force from reaching the paper clip.
