Why does the amount of static charge continue to increase on a glass surface as you rub it?

Glass is an insulator and will not allow excess charge to leave, as insulators prevent electrons from flowing freely from atom to atom.

Why does the amount of static charge continue to increase on a glass surface as you rub?

How do you increase electrostatic forces between two charged objects?
Increase one charge by four times. APEX.
Can Gauss's law be applied to sheet of charge?
no gauss low is only applicable for closed paths. a plane sheet is not a closed path. for applying gauss law the charge must be inside the closed loop or path... ========================== I'll say "yes". Gauss' law says that the electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the amount of charge inside the closed surface. The shape of the surface doesn't matter, and the shape of the charge distribution inside it doesn't matter either. If a closed surface encloses a part of a sheet of charge, then the flux through the surface is proportional to the amount of charge that's on the part of the sheet inside the surface. That doesn't bother me at all.
What is the amount of work done in moving a 100nc charge between two points 5 cm apart on an equipotential surface?
An equipotential surface has the same value of potential. Thus, work done would be zero. Work done = Charge X Potential difference
How do you define gauss law-?
Gauss's Law states that the electric flux from a closed surface matches the amount of the enclosed charge divided by the permittivity.

Earth's surface has an excess amount of negative charge?
Yes the Earth has a vertical electric field that points down. So if you were to try and calculate the amount of excess charge on the Earth's surface, you would get a negative value.

Increase one charge by four times. APEX.
What energy is stored in a battery?
It's all chemical energy with a small amount of surface charge.

A metallic coin is given a negative electric charge How does its mass change?
its mass will increase by an amount too small to measure directly

Why does the core charge increase as one moves left to right?
As you move left to right (in one period of the Periodic Table) the amount of protons in the nucleus increases. More protons means a greater positive charge on the nucleus, which is what "core charge" represents.
What should you do if your tenant refuse the new rent but still wants to continue renting it?
If the lease is up, you can legally evict if they refuse to pay the new amount using partials as the reason. if they want to continue renting it they have no choice. If no lease, you can legally charge whatever you want and they either pay the full amount or go.
Will asolid metal sphere hold a larger electric charge than a hollow sphere of the same diameter where does the charge reside in esch case?
No, the charge held by a solid metal sphere and a hollow sphere of the same diameter would be the same. In both cases, the charge resides on the outer surface of the sphere due to the principle of electrostatic equilibrium.
How does the amount of positive charge on a proton compare with the amount of negative charge on a electron?
equal but opposite
