MAVERICK [17]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Since the comb has a net charge, it attracts the paper, which has a net charge equal to zero. When the paper touches the comb, an electrical interaction is established between the charge of the comb and the neutral paper, because of this, the paper now has a net charge with the same sign of the comb and they repel.

Answer:

Slightly above 20°c

Explanation:

The resistivity of silver is 1.59 x 10-8Ωm{ as discovered by experiment from scientist}

The resistivity of tungsten at 20°c is 5.6x10-8Ωm

We see the value is just an approximation of 4 times not exactly.
