suppose you had two socks sticking together in the clothes dryer from static electricity.what happens if they are spun gently?

Respuesta :

They wouldn't stick because it wouldn't be as fast.

Static electricity creates at the surface of the object when the positive and negative charged particles of the object are not balanced.

Two socks stuck to each other due to static electricity will not spin gently.

Static Electricity

Static electricity can be defined as the result of an imbalance in the charged particles of the object. These charges remain on the surface of the object until they will be released or discharged. These charges on the surface create static electricity at the surface of the object.

In a dryer, when the electricity supplies to the dryer, clothes spun and stuck with other clothes and friction force created between them with the speed of spins increases. When the supply gets off, the spinner stopped its movement and the result is the static electricity that causes the socks to stuck together.

When the two socks were pulled out of the dryer, the charged particles at the surface of the socks get discharged with time. Hence the socks will not spin gently.
