Moving materials against each other will:Select one:a. Neutralize an electrostatic chargeb. Neutralizes one material and creates an electrostatic charge in the other materialc. Create an electrostatic charged. Removes static electricity

Static dissipative materialsSelect one:a. Dissipate humidity in the work areab. Conduct electricity slowly not to cause shock hazard and injury to a personc. Prevent electricity from be conducted. Ground electricity to make charges harmless

The process of electron transfers as a result of two objects coming into contact with each other and then separating is known as 'triboelectric charging'Select one:a. Trueb. False

What method of charging takes place when you charge a neutral object by putting it in contact with an already charged object?Group of answer choicesNo charging took placeCharging by ConductionCharging by FrictionCharging by Induction

A polythene ruler and a cotton cloth are electrically neutral.  When the ruler is rubbed with the cloth, the ruler becomes negatively charged.  Why does this happen?Protons (positive charges) are transferred from the ruler to the clothElectrons (negative charges) are transferred from the ruler to the clothProtons (positive charges) are transferred from the cloth to the rulerElectrons (negative charges) are transferred from the cloth to the ruler2Which of the following is NOT due to static electricity?A lightning strikeA bulb lighting up when connected to an electric circuitA balloon being attracted to a wallA ruler being used to pick up pieces of paper3When a positively charged rubber balloon is placed in contact with a neutral wall, it appears to ‘stick’ to the wall.  Which of the following best explains why this happens?Electrons (negative charges) in the wall are attracted towards the balloonProtons (positive charges) in the wall are repelled away from the balloonProtons (positive charges) in the wall are attracted towards the balloonElectrons (negative charges) in the wall are repelled away from the balloon4Which of the following CANNOT be easily be charged by friction?A piece of paperA sheet of aluminium foilThe rubber sole of a shoeSome plastic cling film5Which of the following atoms is NOT electrically neutral?One which contains 2 protons, 2 neutrons and 1 electronOne which contains 2 protons, 2 neutrons and 2 electronsOne which contains 1 proton and 1 electronOne which contains 3 protons, 4 neutrons and 3 electrons

When removing a load of clothes from her clothes dryer, Tia noticed that all her sweaters were stuck together. She concluded that this was an example ofastatic electricity produced by like charges bstatic electricity produced by unlike chargesccurrent electricity produced by neutral objects dcurrent electricity produced by the conducting clothes
