Question

A positively charged glass rod attracts a suspended object

Answer 1

⏩ANSWER

✳HERE,It can not have negative charge as after attraction it can not repel. Ifsuspended object is charge neutral means it has equal number of positiveand negative charges.

✳so, when theglass rod is brought near it the positive charges move away and negative charges come on the surface near glass rod by induction.

Answer 2

The positively pleasing glass rod that attracts the suspended object is:

• It cannot be said that a rod with a positively charged attracts something with a negative charge.
• The suspended object may be neutral and will still attract the rod.
• The electron cloud around the atoms in a fixed object will be attracted, as it should, towards the positive object.
• The protons in the nuclei do not move.
• The cloud of electron fluctuates in such a way that the probability of its position is very close to the rod, so that the side facing the object is negative and away from the rod is positive.
• The macroscopic effect is that the object is polarized and the negative side is close to the positive rod and attracted as it should.
