When a balloon is rubbed with human hair, the balloon acquires an excess static charge. This implies that some materials can give up electrons more readily than others.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

We know that charges can neither be created nor be destroyed by law of conservation of charges. So when we rub two objects, it is natural to have a transfer of charges. But the charges which get transferred may be negligible in most of the cases leading to no significant observations.

But for some materials, like when we rubbed a balloon with human hair, we observed clouding of excess static charge on the balloon surface. This indicates that hair can easily give up electrons to balloon leading to clouding of excess static charge on it.

In regards to mechanical energy, is energy being conserved ?
xxTIMURxx [149]

If only internal forces are doing work (no work done by external forces), then there is no change in the total amount of mechanical energy. The total mechanical energy is said to be conserved. ... In these situations, the sum of the kinetic and potential energy is everywhere the same.
