Both are originally have equal electrons and protons. After rubbing, electrons move to the duster, from the rod. The duster, as it gains electrons, has more electrons than protons, therefore becoming negatively charged. The rod, losing electrons, becomes negatively charged. then, the rod is able to momentarily pick up little bits of paper for short periods at a time.
Rubbing a perspex rod against a piece of paper will likely transfer some electrons from the perspex to the paper, causing the perspex rod to become positively charged and the paper to become negatively charged. This can create an electrostatic attraction between the rod and the paper.
A polythene rod acquires a negative charge when rubbed with a duster. This is because electrons are transferred from the duster to the polythene rod, leaving the rod with an excess of electrons and a negative charge.
When polythene is rubbed with a duster, electrons from the duster are transferred to the polythene rod, giving the rod an excess of electrons and making it negatively charged. This transfer of electrons creates an imbalance of positive and negative charges on the surfaces, resulting in the rod becoming negatively charged.
When a glass rod is rubbed against a cotton duster, electrons are transferred from the glass rod to the duster. This leaves the glass rod with a net positive charge. The process is known as triboelectric charging, where materials gain or lose electrons during friction.

A polythene rod acquires a negative charge when rubbed with a duster. This is because electrons are transferred from the duster to the polythene rod, leaving the rod with an excess of electrons and a negative charge.
When an acetate rod is rubbed with a duster, it acquires a negative charge. This is because the acetate rod has a higher affinity for electrons compared to the duster, leading to the transfer of electrons from the duster to the acetate rod.
When polythene is rubbed with a duster, electrons from the duster are transferred to the polythene rod, giving the rod an excess of electrons and making it negatively charged. This transfer of electrons creates an imbalance of positive and negative charges on the surfaces, resulting in the rod becoming negatively charged.

Yes, perspex can become attracted to a polythene rod when rubbed together due to the transfer of electrons between the two materials, resulting in a temporary static charge.
a negative charge
The two polythene rods will repel each other. This is because when the rods are rubbed, they acquire a net positive charge which causes them to repel each other since like charges repel.
This happens because the negative electrons on the duster move to the polythene rod. Despite this, the rod still has some positive electrons meaning it should be called an unbalanced negatively charged rod. Hope this helps XD
When a metal rod is rubbed with wool, it gets energized because the metal rod and wool both have opposite effects.
To charge a plastic rod using a duster, rub the duster against the plastic rod. The friction between the materials will transfer electrons from the duster to the rod, giving the rod a negative charge.
it attracts it
