Question
If an object is rubbed with another object, the object which gains electrons:
- Becomes negatively charged
- Becomes positively charged
- Remains neutral
- All of these
Hint:
An object gets a charge when it is rubbed. This rubbing causes the objects to gain or lose electrons.
The correct answer is: Becomes negatively charged
An object gets a charge when it is rubbed. This rubbing causes the objects to gain or lose electrons. When it loses electrons it becomes positively charged. When an object gains electrons it becomes negatively charged.
