Which charge does a balloon have when rubbed with a wooden sleeve?
The balloon will gain a negative charge and the woolen sleeve will gain a positive charge.
A rubbed balloon will stick to a wooden wall which demonstrated charge?
A rubbed balloon will stick to a wooden wall demonstrating the charge of static electricity. The friction of the rubbing of the balloon causes the charge to build.
When you rub a balloon on your head what kind of charge is created?
A Static Charge.
Why does a balloon that has has static electric charge stick to the wall?
A balloon that has a static electric charge can stick to a wall because opposite charges attract each other. The balloon carries a negative charge, while the wall carries a positive charge (due to electrons being transferred from the wall to the balloon). This attraction between the opposite charges causes the balloon to stick to the wall.
What happen if you rub the balloon on your hair or woolen material?
You charge the balloon with static electricity.
How can you use a balloon with a negative charge to find out whether the charge on another balloon is positive or negative?
You can tell if the negative balloon attracts or repels the other balloon. If it attracts the balloon then it is a positive balloon. If it repels the balloon then it is a negative balloon.
Which charge does a balloon have when rubbed with a wooden sleeve?
The balloon will gain a negative charge and the woolen sleeve will gain a positive charge.
A rubbed balloon will stick to a wooden wall which demonstrated charge?
A rubbed balloon will stick to a wooden wall demonstrating the charge of static electricity. The friction of the rubbing of the balloon causes the charge to build.
Why the charged balloon wiill be attracted to the charged glass rod?
If charge on the balloon is induced due to the charge of the glass rod then there will be opposite charge and so balloon gets attracted by the rod. Unlike charges do attract each other
How might you use a balloon with a negative charge to find out whether the charge on another balloon is positive or negative?
If you move a negatively-charged balloon close to another balloon, if it moves towards the first balloon, it is positively-charged. If it moves away, it is negatively charged.
When you rub a balloon on your head what kind of charge is created?
A Static Charge.
Why does a balloon that has has static electric charge stick to the wall?
A balloon that has a static electric charge can stick to a wall because opposite charges attract each other. The balloon carries a negative charge, while the wall carries a positive charge (due to electrons being transferred from the wall to the balloon). This attraction between the opposite charges causes the balloon to stick to the wall.
What happen if you rub the balloon on your hair or woolen material?
You charge the balloon with static electricity.
Why does a balloon stick to the wall after it is rubbed on polymer?
The idea is that the balloon gains electric charge.
How does a balloon get a charge from rubbing it on the hair?
Friction pulls electrons from the hair to the balloon. This makes the hair positive, and the balloon negative.
What electrical charge does a balloon have if the protons and electrons are the same?
Obviously , it will be a positive charge.
Why a balloon now negatively charged?
When you rub a balloon onto your hair or piece of clothing, the balloon collects the electrons (negative charge) from the hair or clothing you rubbed it on. The balloon now has more electrons (negative charge) than protons (positive charge) making it have a negative charge. The hair or clothing has more protons than electrons making it have a positive charge.
