    This document contains a 4 question physics exam covering topics of static electricity and charge. Question 1 asks how to determine if a comb is positively or negatively charged using an identified negatively charged ruler. Question 2 asks why clothes from the dryer sometimes cling to the body. Question 3 asks why fog or rain droplets tend to form around ions or electrons in the air. Question 4 asks to explain why a positively charged rod attracts a neutral piece of paper when brought close.

    Grade 12 General Physics 2 Exam

    1. If you charge a pocket comb by rubbing it with a silk scarf, how can you determine if the comb
    is positively or negatively charged using a ruler that was identified to be negatively charged?
    a) If the ruler is repelled by the comb, then the comb is negatively charged.
    b) If the ruler is attracted by the comb, then the comb is negatively charged.
    c) If the ruler is repelled by the comb, then the comb is positively charged.
    d) If the ruler is neither repelled not attracted by the comb, then the comb is negatively charged.
    2. Why does a shirt or blouse taken from clothes dryer sometimes cling to your body?
    a) The clothes are neutralized and sustain relatively large kinetic charge with attracts the charges in the body.
    b) The clothes are decharged and sustain min. static charge which polarizes upon contact to the highly
    charged body.
    c) The clothes are charged and sustain relatively large static charge which polarizes upon contact to the
    body.
    d) The clothes are charged negatively by the dryer which attracts the positively charged human body.
    3. Explain why fog or rain droplets tend to form around ions or electrons in the air.
    a) Water has a positive region
    b) They equally shared electrons
    c) Ions in the atmosphere
    d) Both A and C
    4. A positively charged rod is brought close to a neutral piece of paper, which it attracts. Explain
    why the attraction occurs.
    a) Depolarization which brings p+¿¿
    b) The rod polarizes the molecules
    c) The paper polarizes the molecules
    d) Depolarization occurs which brings e−¿¿
