Does the attraction between the comb and the piece of papers last for longer period of time?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the attraction between a comb and a piece of paper lasts for a longer period of time, we can analyze the situation step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Initial Condition When a comb is rubbed against hair or a cloth, it acquires an excess electric charge. This charge can be either positive or negative, depending on the material of the comb and the object it was rubbed against. **Hint:** Think about how static electricity is generated through friction. ### Step 2: Attraction Between the Comb and Paper ...
