MCQ
When an object gets negatively charged by the process of friction then:
- AThe object loses some electrons.
- BThe object loses some protons.
- ✓The object gains some electrons.
- DThe object gains some protons.
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
The object gains some electrons.
During a charging by rubbing $($or by friction$)$ process, the material that becomes negatively charged does so because it simply likes or gain electrons more than the material with which it is rubbed. The conductive abilities of the two materials has nothing to do with the subsequent result of the rubbing process.
