There are three ways to give an object a static charge. They are friction, conduction and induction. Two pieces of cellophane ta

pe are stuck to a lab table. Each piece is quickly ripped off the table. A student attempts to bring the two pieces of tape together, but the tape is attracted to her hand. So, the tape clings to her hand. Formulate a possible explanation for this. A) The adhesive on the tape sticks to the student's hand. B) The charges are conducted onto the student's hand and then the tape is attracted to her hand. C) The tape is charged by friction and her hand has an induced opposite charge. They therefore attract. D) The tape is charged by friction and the human body is naturally charged. So, the tape is attracted to her hand. Eliminate
