Explain the behavior of the balloons referencing the charges.explain how the distance and direction of john travoltage’s finger
effects the spark to the door knob.dust in homes often clings to furnishings due to electrostatic interactions. Using principles from this lab and your reading, describe how you think the tiny dust particles acquired a charge.
when John Travoltage rubbed his foot against the floor, he started building up negative energy, this negative energy later built up as he was rubbing his foot on the floor which then caused a reaction with the door knob, the same thing happened with the balloons, as we rubbed it on the sweater, the balloons started building up negative energy too, which then resulted in a connection with the positive energy. The dust particles most likely got a charge from moving around from different places, considering that fabrics build up the negative energy, it appears that the dust particles could have landed on a fabric which then allowed the particles to build it up and then stick to other surfaces.
