Question
- a balloon rubbed on hair can stick to a wall due to select tension applied force gravity electrical (electrostatic) force
Brief Explanations
When a balloon is rubbed on hair, electrons are transferred, giving the balloon a net electric charge. This charged balloon is then attracted to the neutral wall by an electrostatic force. Tension is a force in a stretched - out object, applied force is an external push or pull, and gravity is the force between masses. None of these are responsible for the balloon - wall attraction in this case.
