Rubbing a lucite rod with fur causes the rod to become charged by friction. Electrons are transferred from the fur to the lucite rod, giving the rod a negative charge and the fur a positive charge. This is known as triboelectric charging.
When you rub amber against cotton, the friction between the materials causes a transfer of electrons, leading to a build-up of static electricity. This results in the amber and cotton becoming electrically charged, with the amber typically gaining a negative charge and the cotton gaining a positive charge.
When two surfaces rub against each other, friction is generated. This friction produces heat and wears down the surfaces over time. In some cases, it can also create static electricity.
Rubbing fur with a material such as rubber or plastic creates a negative charge through a process called triboelectric charging. This happens when electrons are transferred from one material to the other, resulting in one material becoming positively charged and the other becoming negatively charged.
Sliding friction occurs when two solids rub against each other.
The ebonite rod will gather a static electric charge, as electrons are transferred.
Electrons are tranferred to the stick, causing it to take on a negative charge
electrons are transferred to the stick,causing it to take on a negative charge.

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)
