Static Electricity

Chapter 6 revision

Multiple Choice

Lightning occurs because ___.

the negative charges at the bottom of clouds are attracted to the positive charges on the ground.

the positive charges at the bottom of clouds are attracted to the negative charges on the ground.

the positive and negative charges inside clouds are attracted to each other

All of these reasons are correct.

Multiple Choice

Bending water with a charged balloon is an example of what type of charging (charging an object without touching)

friction

induction

conduction

Multiple Choice

What method of static charging is shown in this picture

Polarization

Friction

Induction

Conduction

Multiple Choice

Charge separation in clouds is one way

that freezing rain occurs

that lightning occurs

that low pressure system occurs

that a tornado occurs

Multiple Choice

What is the major difference between static electricity and current electricity?

Current electricity involves a continuous flow of neutrons; static electricity is a sudden transfer of protons

Current electricity can be deadly; static electricity is almost always safe

In current electricity, there's a single transfer of electrons; in static electricity, there's a steady flow of electrons

Current electricity involves a flow of electrons; static electricity involves a single transfer of electrons

Multiple Choice

+ 8.9 µC

- 8.9 µC

+ 4 µC

- 44 µC

Multiple Choice

Force between two bodies having charges 5.0 x 10² μC and 1.0 x 10² μC separated by distance of 0.50 m in air is

electric pulse.

electric charge.

electric force.

electric field.

Multiple Choice

If you rub a glass rod with a piece of silk, the rod becomes positively charged. This means that

friction destroyed electrons in the rod.

the silk has become negatively charged.

protons have moved to the rod.

glass attracts more protons.
