What happens when a charged ebonite rod is brought close to water?

Ebonite rod becomes positively charged and the fur becomes negatively charged. Hold on electrons: Fur > Ebonite rod So, the ebonite rod loses its electrons to the fur and the fur becomes negatively charged.


Examples of electrostatic force?

paper sticking to a charged CD water attracted to an ebonite rod


When objects gain or lose electrons they become static electricity?

For example as glass rob is rubbed with silk then glass becomes positively charged and silk negatively charged. This is mainly because of the transfer of electrons right from glass to silk. But in case of ebonite rod rubbed with fur electrons get transferred from fur to ebonite. So ebonite becomes negatively charged and fur positive charged Now in case of an atom or molecule one or more electrons get removed and so that atom or molecules become a positive ion. Same way as electron gets attached with a neutral atom then it becomes negative ion.


How does a substance become temporarily charged by induction when a charged object is brought near?

I'm not 100% sure because were just starting this in class today. Let's say you have a negatively charged ebonite rod and you brought it toward a neutral pithball (if you don't know what that is just picture a shere). Before you brought the rod near the pithball, the protons and electrons in the pithball are spread out evenly. When u bring the negatively charged rod towards the pithball the electrons in the pithball move to the otherside of the ball. The protons never move but are now closer to the negatively charged ebonite rod. So technically, it reacts like a positively charged object would and attrcts to the negative ebonite rod ( unlike charges attract). But once the ebonite rod is moved away from the pithball, the pithball is neutral. The pithball is always neutral because there's no transfer of electrons but I guess it is technically temporarily charged. I'm not sure if that's what your looking for but I hope it helped a bit.

What happens when you rub an ebonite stick with a wool cloth?

Electrons are tranferred to the stick, causing it to take on a negative charge

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)
