Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
If you rub a balloon on your hair and the balloon becomes charged negatively, which material must have lost electrons? Explain why.
💡 Hint: Think about the definitions of positive and negative charges.
Create a mini-experiment where you test the triboelectric series using different materials. Document which materials gain or lose electrons when rubbed together.
💡 Hint: Use the series to predict the outcomes before testing them.
