what kind of electricity is produced by rubbinga glass rub with a silk cloth?

Answer 1

Wow, an easy question and 2 points. Thanks. The answer of course is static electricity

How can we move electrons from one place to another? One very common way is to rub two objects together. If they are made of different materials, and are both insulators, electrons may be transferred (or moved) from one to the other. The more rubbing, the more electrons move, and the larger the static charge that builds up. (Scientists believe that it is not the rubbing or friction that causes electrons to move. It is simply the contact between two different materials. Rubbing just increases the contact area between them.)

Static electricity is the imbalance of
positive and negative charges.

Answer 2

It is static electricity and a similar thing happens when you comb your hair (dry) with a comb, when you wear silk or synthetic clothes in winter when skin is relatively dry etc. It is also the same static electricity which is built up to Millions of Volts in the Van de Graaf generator used in physics accelerators.

Answer 3

Static electricity

Answer 4

Static electricity.

Answer 5

static electricity ! It is produced by the ransfer of electrons from one object to the other so that one develops a positive charge and the other negative charge.Because of the opposite charges both the materials get attracted to each other and eventually get stuck . similar is the case with combing moist hair.
hope u've understood ,its that simple.

Answer 6

static electricity, your creating a DC potential...kind of like a capacitor. usually about 30,000Volts

Answer 7

Static, you're kidding, right?

Answer 8

static charge.
