Questions and Answers

What is the outcome when a negatively charged ebonite rod is brought close to a positively charged glass rod?

The hung glass rod moves towards the ebonite rod.

How does a charged balloon stick to an uncharged wall?

The negatively charged balloon repels some of the negative electrons from the surface of the wall, giving it a slight positive charge that attracts the balloon.

What is the fundamental principle behind electrostatic phenomena?

The movement of electrons from one material to another.
