Question

What happens when amber is rubbed against fur?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Under normal circumstances, only the electrons are mobile. Thus, when amber is rubbed with fur, electrons are transferred from the fur to the amber, giving the amber an excess of electrons, and, hence, a negative charge, and the fur a deficit of electrons, and, hence, a positive charge.

Answer 2

When amber is rubbed with wool or silk, amber becomes positively charged. This is explained with the help of the concept of static electricity. ... (b) There are two types of charges and they are positive charge and negative charge. (c) Like charges repel each other while the unlike charges attract each other.
