There are three ways to give an object a static charge. They are friction, conduction and induction. Two pieces of cellophane tape are stuck to a lab table. Each piece is quickly ripped off the table. What prediction would you make about what happens when the two pieces of tape are brought near one another?
A) Nothing will happen. The tape only sticks when you touch the adhesive.
B) The two pieces of tape will repel as both have obtained a static charge.
C) The two pieces of tape will attract as both have obtained a static charge.
D) The two piece will cling to each other as a sock clings when it is removed from a clothes dryer.
