The state of the charge on balls
Answer to Problem 1CQ
The ball
Explanation of Solution
When a plastic rod is rubbed with wool, the plastic rod acquires negative charge on it because from charge model, the rubbing charges the objects by transferring charge from one to the other.
The ball
Case 1: Balls
The charge model states that two objects with same charge exert repulsive force on each other and two objects with different charge exert attractive force on each other.
The neutral objects have an equal mixture of positive and negative charge and they can be attracted by positively or negatively charged body due to charge polarization.
The balls
Case 2 : Balls
Both balls,
Case 3 : Ball
Ball
Conclusion:
Thus, the ball
