This has to do with the charge of the objects. Positively charged items stick to negatively charged items (think "opposites attract"). Though objects like hair and balloons are generally neutral (without a charge) and do not attract anything, this can be changed through the transfer of electrons. Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles that can be transferred between items through contact.
When you rub a balloon on your hair, the contact between your hair and the balloon allows electrons to be transferred, known as the triboelectric effect. Some materials are more likely to gain electrons and become more negative, while others are more likely to lose electrons and become more positive. In the case of hair and a balloon, the electrons are transferred from your hair to the balloon, so the balloon becomes negative.
Now that electrons have been transferred, your hair and the balloon are of opposite charged and attract one another; therefore, your hair sticks to the balloon. Before the balloon contacts the hair, they both have a stable balance of electrons and protons. Once the balloon is rubbed on the hair, it takes electrons from the hair. Thus leaving the hair positively charged and the balloon negatively charged. Once the balloon is pulled away the hair sticks to it. This happens because opposite charges attract and since the hair was positively charged, and the balloon is negatively charged, they attract.
It becomes positively charged because of friction happening between your head and your balloon.
Sorry but it is not the Friction, it is the transfer of Electrons from the Balloon to the Hair. This creates Positive IONS from the Neutral Atoms of the Balloon.
The electrons in your hair transfer to the balloon making it negatively charged.
because static electricity is in everything. so your hair passes the electricity from the hair to the ballon.
The balloon will have built up a static charge which will interact with your hair to make it stand up/pull towards the balloon.
Static electricity would build-up in the skin of the balloon. After rubbing the balloon, place the balloon against a wall, and the balloon should stick to the wall.
It will shock your hair
Static Electricity.
They both cause by electrical charge
Because of the static electricity.
Both. A lightning bolt has many thousands of amps at millions of volts. The planet spins, but also has stationary waves through which it spins. It also has friction. Both of these cause the potential in the air to rise, as well as the earth. And yes..the earth has electricity in it. We don't create electricity from nature. We simply borrow it, make it do our bidding, and return it to ground...or "earth"
cause lightning is electrical.
The volume of the balloon would decrease. The pressure of the water would press inward on the balloon and cause it to shrink in volume.
When you rub a balloon against a sweater it will stick and stay on for a while
Static electricity is an electric charge built up on persons or objects through friction,and a balloon is a rubber *ball8 thing that you blow up. your welcome
When the air is dry static electricity is more enhanced and noticeable than when the air is humid. Things with the same charge repel each other. You can produce static electricity by rubbing a balloon in your hair. It will cause your hair to stand up and the balloon will be able to stick to a wall. Also if you have on rubber sole shoes and you drag them along a carpet the first person you touch will be shocked by static electricity.
example you take a balloon and you rub it against your hair it will cause the balloon to lose or gain electrons which that mommnet it makes static
example you take a balloon and you rub it against your hair it will cause the balloon to lose or gain electrons which that mommnet it makes static
Which materials make more static electricity when different objects are rubbed up against eachother.
u need a balloon and u can rub it on ur head and it wll cause electricity so there
No, but sandstorms can cause static electricity.
Charges cause static electricity by charges
Charges cause static electricity by charges
The friction between your hair and the balloon cause static electricity causing your hair to stand up.
electrons are transferred from your hair to the balloon . so ballon gets a negative charge . so there is a transfer of energy when you rub your hair with balloon and static electricity is producedP.S. : HAIR SHOULD BE DRY
