Answer:
1) We will have excess of electrons
2) The number of electrons transferred equals
Explanation:
Part a)
Since we know that the charge transfer occurs by the transfer of electrons only as it is given that the carpet has acquired a positive charge it means that it has lost some of the electron's since electrons are negatively charged and if a neutral body looses negative charge it will become positively charged. The electron's that are lost by the carpet will be acquired by the feet of the human thus making us negatively charged.Hence we will gain electrons making us excess in electrons.
Part b)
From charge quantinization principle we have
where
Q = charge of body
n = no of electrons
e = fundamental charge
Applying values in the above equation we get
