when we rub the plastic scale against the hair it loses the electrons and whenever an object loses electrons it becomes positively charged .When this positively charged plastic scale brought nearer to paper pieces induces charge on it and electrons revolving in discrete orbits are attracted and nucleus is pushed back so that repulsion do not take place.
This is due to the generation of electrostatic charges
Yes. The ink sticks just as a rubbed comb attracts bits of paper.
A glass rod that is charged usually attracts the small bits of paper placed near it because it is usually electrostatically charged.
yes
It indicates that both strips have either both positive or negative charges therefore the plastic strips repel each other.
Because of a static charge caused by the rubbing.

the bits of paper will stick on the wooden scale.
yes
because the come has chemical energy

An object can be charged by friction when rubbed against another surface such asa) polythene rod rubbed against a woollen cloth.This occurred because the woollen cloth lost some of it negative charges when it was rubbed, the negative charges was then transferred to the polythene rod. Now the polythene rod has been charge by friction.For proof... after it has been charged,place the polythene rod next to some *very small bits of paper and see what happens.
The iron rod becomes shinier and the wool cloth wears out. If you rub the same wool cloth on a hard rubber rod, the rod will become charged with static electricity and you will be able to pick up small bits of paper with it---whoopee!
The reason why the pieces of paper are neutral is that they contain equal amount of positive and negative charges and so they cancel each other out. When you bring a charged plastic comb to the pieces of paper, the charge opposite to that of the plastic comb will be brought to a part of the surface of the paper where the plastic comb is. Opposite charges attract each other, and since you're holding the comb, the pieces of paper will be attracted to the comb.
The bits of paper acquire opposite charge of the comb and as unlike charge attract the bits of paper are attracted and picked up by the comb
Static electricity in the comb attracted the slightly charged paper to it, but when the paper touched the comb, their very slight charge was neutralized, which caused them to fall off.
