When you rub a piece of glass with silk (or a piece of hard rubber with fur), the friction transfers some of the electrons from one of the materials to the other. Moving electrons requires a certain amount of energy, they're not going to just hop over and create a separation of charges on their own: that's a higher potential energy. The energy is supplied by the motion.
static
True -It's "False"!
No, you do not need to touch an object to permanently give it a charge. You can induce a charge on an object through methods like friction, conduction, or induction. This charge can persist on the object even after you remove your contact.
Static friction is the frictional force needed to overcome the initial resistance of an object at rest and set it in motion. This force is required to counteract the initial inertia of the object and is called static friction because it acts when an object is stationary.
Throwing involves dynamic friction, which is the type of friction that occurs between two surfaces in relative motion. When an object is thrown, the friction between the object and the hand provides the force needed to accelerate the object and give it velocity.

The factors that contribute to the starting friction experienced by a moving object include the roughness of the surfaces in contact, the weight of the object, and the force needed to overcome static friction.
The charge that stays on an object is called static charge or static electricity. It occurs when there is an imbalance of electric charges on the surface of an object due to friction or contact with other charged objects.
Humid air contains more water molecules that can dissipate excess charge away from the object being charged, reducing its ability to accumulate charge. This makes it more difficult to charge an object by friction on a humid day compared to a dry day.
Approx. 6.24 x 106 electrons have rubbed either onto it or off of it during the friction, leaving the net charge on it unbalanced by 10-12 coulomb.
The electric charge that has accumulated on an object refers to an excess or deficiency of electrons on the object's surface, leading to a net positive or negative charge. This accumulation of charge can be influenced by various factors such as friction, induction, or conduction.
False. The force needed to overcome static friction is typically greater than that needed to overcome kinetic friction. Static friction is the resistance to motion when an object is at rest, while kinetic friction is the resistance to motion when an object is already in motion. Static friction requires more force to overcome because it is necessary to break the initial "stickiness" between the surfaces.
