Answer 2

Comb gets Charged due to Static Electricity

Explanation:

• Similar to the positive and Negative charge ,there exist Neutral Charge

• It is found that a charged object, whether positive or negative, may attract uncharged objects.

• This is because the comb gets charged when it is rubbed.This charge that is created when two objects are rubbed against each other is called static electricity

• The same thing happens when the comb is brought near neutral paper strips.
• Within the papers strips, the electrons get either repelled or attracted according to whether the comb has a negative or a positive charge.
• This makes the paper strips have an unlike charge in the direction of the comb, and makes them rise towards it.
