When a metal rod is rubbed together with silk, electrons transfer from the metal rod to the silk due to the difference in their electron affinities. This creates a charge imbalance, with the metal rod acquiring a positive charge and the silk a negative charge. This is known as triboelectric charging.
The glass rod loses electrons when rubbed with a silk cloth. This leaves the glass rod positively charged as it loses negative electrons to the silk cloth through friction.
When a plastic rod is rubbed with a silk cloth, electrons are transferred from the silk to the plastic rod. This results in the plastic rod becoming negatively charged and the silk cloth becoming positively charged. This effect is known as triboelectric charging.
A balloon rubbed in hair becomes negatively charged due to gaining excess electrons from the hair. On the other hand, a glass rod rubbed with silk becomes positively charged as it loses electrons to the silk.
When a silk shirt is rubbed with a human body, the silk gains electrons from the body, giving it a net negative charge. The human body will then have a net positive charge as it loses electrons to the silk shirt during the rubbing process.
The difference in charges results from the materials involved. When you rub a balloon on your hair, the balloon becomes negatively charged due to a transfer of electrons from the hair. In contrast, when you rub a glass rod with silk, the glass rod becomes positively charged since electrons are transferred from the silk to the glass rod. This difference in charge occurs because different materials have different tendencies to gain or lose electrons when rubbed together.

the silk will rub of the electrons on the silk, leaving the glass positively charged
The glass rod loses electrons when rubbed with a silk cloth. This leaves the glass rod positively charged as it loses negative electrons to the silk cloth through friction.
The silk picked up positive charges.
The Physicist who said first that the charge on a glass rod rubbed with silk is positive was Michael Faraday.
When a plastic rod is rubbed with a silk cloth, electrons are transferred from the silk to the plastic rod. This results in the plastic rod becoming negatively charged and the silk cloth becoming positively charged. This effect is known as triboelectric charging.
A balloon rubbed in hair becomes negatively charged due to gaining excess electrons from the hair. On the other hand, a glass rod rubbed with silk becomes positively charged as it loses electrons to the silk.
When a silk shirt is rubbed with a human body, the silk gains electrons from the body, giving it a net negative charge. The human body will then have a net positive charge as it loses electrons to the silk shirt during the rubbing process.
When glass rod is rubbed with silk cloth it becomes positively charged and the silk cloth becomes negatively charged. This is because the glass rod looses electrons to the silk cloth which makes it positive and the silk cloth becomes negative.
When a glass rod is rubbed with a silk cloth, the glass rod becomes positively charged. This is because electrons are transferred from the glass to the silk, leaving the glass with an excess of positive charge.
The difference in charges results from the materials involved. When you rub a balloon on your hair, the balloon becomes negatively charged due to a transfer of electrons from the hair. In contrast, when you rub a glass rod with silk, the glass rod becomes positively charged since electrons are transferred from the silk to the glass rod. This difference in charge occurs because different materials have different tendencies to gain or lose electrons when rubbed together.
When polyethylene is rubbed against silk, electrons are transferred from the silk to the polyethylene, causing the polyethylene to become negatively charged. This is because polyethylene has a higher electron affinity compared to silk, which means it has a greater ability to attract and hold onto electrons.
