a negative charge
When perspex is rubbed on a woollen sleeve, the friction generates static electricity. This causes electrons to transfer from the wool to the perspex, giving the perspex a negative charge and the wool a positive charge. This phenomenon is known as triboelectric charging.
The glass rod becomes positively charged because it loses electrons when rubbed with silk. This creates an imbalance of positive charge, as the glass atoms are left with more protons (positive charge) than electrons (negative charge).
When a piece of perspex is rubbed on a woollen sleeve, the triboelectric effect occurs. This results in the transfer of electrons between the two materials, causing the perspex to become negatively charged and the woollen sleeve to become positively charged. This can create static electricity and may cause the materials to attract or repel each other.
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 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.
When Perspex (acrylic) is rubbed with silk, it acquires a static electric charge due to the triboelectric effect. This occurs because electrons are transferred from one material to the other, resulting in the Perspex becoming negatively charged while the silk becomes positively charged. This static charge can cause the Perspex to attract lightweight objects or even small pieces of paper.
The cloth is left with a negative charge when rubbed against perspex due to transfer of electrons from the perspex to the cloth.
When perspex is rubbed on a woollen sleeve, the friction generates static electricity. This causes electrons to transfer from the wool to the perspex, giving the perspex a negative charge and the wool a positive charge. This phenomenon is known as triboelectric charging.
The glass rod becomes positively charged because it loses electrons when rubbed with silk. This creates an imbalance of positive charge, as the glass atoms are left with more protons (positive charge) than electrons (negative charge).
Rubbed wool does not have a specific negative charge; rather, it becomes negatively charged when it is rubbed against certain materials, like plastic. This occurs due to the transfer of electrons, with wool losing electrons and becoming positively charged, while the other material gains those electrons and becomes negatively charged. Therefore, the charge of rubbed wool itself is typically positive, not negative.

This results in the transfer of electrons between the two materials, causing the perspex to become negatively charged and the woollen sleeve to become positively charged.

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.
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.
The rubbed balloon becomes negatively charged from the transfer of electrons. The wooden wall becomes positively charged because it loses some electrons to the balloon. Opposite charges attract, causing the balloon to stick to the wall.
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.
When an ebonite rod is rubbed with silk, it acquires a negative charge. This occurs because electrons are transferred from the silk to the ebonite, resulting in an excess of electrons on the ebonite surface. Consequently, the ebonite rod becomes negatively charged, while the silk loses electrons and becomes positively charged.
