Question

. Bring plastic rod near some small pieces of paper. Are the pieces of paper
attracted to the plastic rod? Why or why not?​

Answer 1

Answer:

For example, a negatively charged plastic object such as a comb or ruler repels electrons in a piece of paper. The near side of the paper to the plastic object becomes positively charged, so it is attracted to the plastic object. This is why party balloons attract hair after they have been rubbed on a shirt or jumper.
