Rubbing a comb on hair makes the comb get -0.4C. (a) Find which material has lost electron and which one gained it. (b) Find how many electrons are transferred in this process.

Answer»

Solution :(a) The material is COMB which GAINED electrons and the HAIR gained it.
(b) Charge on 1 electron, `e= 1.6xx10^(-19)C`
`q= "ne or "n=q"/"e`
`n= 0.4"/"1.6xx10^(-19)=0.25xx10^(19)`
`=2.5xx10^(18)`.
