Resource summary

Question 1

Question
What is Charging by Friction
Answer
  • Takes place when contact is made between a neutral object and a charged object
  • when static charges build up as different materials rub together
  • when a charged object is close to a neutral object, the electric field of the charged object produces an attractive force on the neutral object

Question 2

Question
What is charging by Contact?
Answer
  • When static charges build up as different materials rub together
  • When a charged object is close to a neutral object, the electric field of the charged object produces an attractive force on the neutral object
  • takes place when contact is made between a neutral object and a charged object
