A teacher places a metal can on top of an insulating foam cup and touches the side of the foam cup with a negatively charged rod. The setup is shown in the picture below.



What will happen to the negatively charged electrons when the rod touches the foam cup?

Responses

The electrons will transfer to the foam cup and will remain in a concentrated, positively charged area on the cup where the rod was placed.

A balloon and a section of a wall both have neutral charges, as shown below.





A student rubs his hair on the balloon, giving it a negative charge. How will the charges be arranged in the wall when it is placed near the negatively changed balloon?

Read the passage about Diego’s experiment:

Diego wants to make an electromagnet for the science fair. He only has a nail, copper wire, and a 9-volt battery. His experiment is to make a magnet strong enough to pick up paper clips. He wants to prove that his magnet can pick up the most clips.


What can Diego do to his magnet to make sure he picks up the most paper clips?

Diego can wrap a few coils of the wire, far apart, around the nail.

When a negatively charged rod touches the insulating foam cup, the electrons from the rod will be transferred to the foam cup. Since the foam cup is an insulator, the electrons will remain in the cup where the rod was placed, creating a concentrated area of negative charge.

Therefore, the correct response is:

**The electrons will transfer to the foam cup and will remain in a concentrated, negatively charged area on the cup where the rod was placed.**

When the negatively charged balloon is brought near the neutral wall, it will induce a separation of charges within the wall. The electrons in the wall will be repelled by the negatively charged balloon, causing them to move away from the side of the wall that is closer to the balloon. This results in a positive charge on the side of the wall nearest to the balloon (as the electrons move away), while the side of the wall farther from the balloon remains neutral.

Thus, when the negatively charged balloon is placed near the wall, the charges will be arranged as follows:

- The side of the wall closest to the balloon will become positively charged (due to the deficiency of electrons).
- The side of the wall farthest from the balloon will remain neutral.

So, the overall effect is that the wall will become polarized with a positive charge near the negatively charged balloon.

When the negatively charged rod touches the neutral metal sphere, electrons from the rod will move to the sphere. This happens because the sphere is neutral, and when it comes into contact with the negatively charged rod, the excess electrons from the rod will transfer to the sphere.

Once the electrons move to the sphere, they will spread out evenly across its surface, due to the nature of conductors allowing charges to distribute uniformly.

Therefore, the correct response is:

**electrons will move from the rod to the sphere and spread out.**

When one of the negatively charged balloons is brought close to a positively charged piece of wool, the balloon and wool will experience an attractive electrostatic force. This is due to the fact that opposite charges attract each other.

As the balloon approaches the wool, the magnitude of the electrostatic force between them will increase because they are getting closer together.

Therefore, the correct response is:

**The magnitude of the electrostatic force between the balloon and the wool will increase, and they will attract each other.**

To determine which magnet has the most magnetic energy, the best approach would be to measure how close each magnet can get to a metal object before picking it up. This method will give a practical indication of the strength of the magnetic field produced by each magnet.

Therefore, the correct response is:

**Measure how close each magnet can get to a metal object before picking it up.**

To maximize the strength of the electromagnet and ensure that it can pick up the most paper clips, Diego should wrap many coils of the wire tightly (close together) around the nail. More coils of wire create a stronger magnetic field when an electric current flows through them.

Therefore, the correct response is:

**Diego can wrap many coils of the wire, close together, around the nail.**
