Thales of Miletus.
The nucleus of an atom, which contains protons (positively charged particles), and a positively charged metal rod after rubbing it with a cloth.
Conduction involves the transfer of heat or electricity through direct contact between objects. It does not involve the transfer of electrons from a charged object to another by rubbing. Rubbing objects can create static electricity, where electrons are transferred due to friction, but this is not conduction.
Rubbing has transferred some charge between the objects in diagrams A and B. In diagram A, the initially neutral object loses electrons, becoming positively charged, while in diagram B, the initially neutral object gains electrons, becoming negatively charged.
Conductors can be charged by conduction (direct contact with a charged object), induction (placing a charged object near the conductor), or friction (rubbing two objects together to transfer charge).
When two objects are rubbed together, electrons can move from one object to the other, causing one object to become positively charged and the other to become negatively charged. This transfer of electrons creates an imbalance of charge between the two objects, leading to the appearance of charges.

Cats claim territory by marking it with their scent through rubbing, scratching, and spraying. They exhibit behaviors like rubbing their face on objects, scratching furniture, and spraying urine to establish ownership of an area.
Charging by rubbing, also known as triboelectric charging, is a process where two different materials are rubbed together, causing a transfer of electrons between the materials. This transfer of electrons results in one material becoming positively charged and the other becoming negatively charged.
Three main methods of charging objects are friction (rubbing two objects together), conduction (direct contact with a charged object), and induction (bringing a charged object close to a neutral object without direct contact).
A body can become charged either by gaining or losing electrons. When electrons are transferred between objects, one object becomes positively charged (losing electrons) and the other becomes negatively charged (gaining electrons). This charge separation creates an electric field around the objects.
Positively charged objects have an excess of protons compared to electrons, while negatively charged objects have an excess of electrons compared to protons. These imbalances in charge cause positively charged objects to attract negatively charged objects and repel other positively charged objects, and vice versa for negatively charged objects.
Rubbing glass with silk or rubber can create static electricity due to the friction between the materials. This static charge can cause the glass to attract small objects or produce a mild electric shock when touched.
Negatively charged objects can attract positively charged objects, repel other negatively charged objects, and cause static electricity buildup.
