Question 14 Marks
A charge is a property associated with the matter due to which it experiences and produces an electric and magnetic field. Charges are scalar in nature and they add up like real numbers. Also, the total charge of an isolated system is always conserved. When the objects rub against each other charges acquired by them must be
Image
(i) The cause of charging is:
(a) the actual transfer of atoms 
(b) the actual transfer of protons
(c) the actual transfer of electrons  
(d) the actual transfer of neutrons

(ii) Pick the correct statement.
i. The glass rod gives protons to silk when they are rubbed against each other.
ii. The glass rod gives electrons to silk when they are rubbed against each other.
iii. The glass rod gains protons from silk when they are rubbed against each other.
iv. The glass rod gains electrons when they are rubbed against each other.
(a) Option (i)  (b) Option (iv)  (c) Option (iii)   (d) Option (ii)

(iii) If two electrons are each $1.5 \times 10^{-10} m$ from a proton, as shown in Figure, magnitude of the net electric force they will exert on the proton is
Image

(a) $1.97 \times 10^{-8} N$
(b) $3.83 \times 10^{-8} N$
(c) $4.63 \times 10^{-8} N$
(d) $2.73 \times 10^{-8} N$

(iv) A charge is a property associated with the matter due to which it produces and experiences:
(a) electric effects only
(b) magnetic effects only
(c) both electric and magnetic effects
(d) non magnetic effects only

OR

The cause of quantization of electric charges is:
(a) transfer of an integral number of electrons
(b) transfer of an integral number of neutrons
(c) transfer of an integral number of protons
(d) transfer of an integral number of Atom
Answer
A charge is a property associated with the matter due to which it experiences and produces an electric and magnetic field. Charges are scalar in nature and they add up like real numbers. Also, the total charge of an isolated system is always conserved. When the objects rub against each other charges acquired by them must be equal and opposite.
