Question

atom attract bits of paper after rubbing on dry hair because it acquires.....
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Basically, when an electrification takes place, electrons are not created but they are transferred..... in the case of comb attracting tiny tiny bits of papers when rubbed with dry hair is because electrons from the dry hair gets transferred to the comb and now the comb induces a dipole in the bitties of paper and the ...

Answer 2

Explanation:-

This is because the neutrality of polarity can be changed by electric field in this case. When you create - charge in the comb and you expose the pieces of paper to the electric field created by the charge, you will polarise them so that the part closer to the comb will be + and the other will be -.

Basically, when an electrification takes place, electrons are not created but they are transferred..... in the case of comb attracting tiny tiny bits of papers when rubbed with dry hair is because electrons from the dry hair gets transferred to the comb and now the comb induces a dipole in the bitties of paper and the paper gets attracted...

Due to the induced dipole they get attracted to the electrified comb i.e, negative charge.
