select all the correct answers. jeff puts on a leather jacket over his sweater. the sweater becomes negatively charged. which statements about jeffs situation explain why the sweater became negatively charged? the sweater has a tendency to attract electrons. the sweater has a tendency to attract protons. the leather jacket has a tendency to attract electrons. the leather jacket has a tendency to attract protons. the leather jacket has a lower tendency to attract electrons than the sweater.
Answer
Answer:
A. The sweater has a tendency to attract electrons., E. The leather jacket has a lower tendency to attract electrons than the sweater.
Explanation:
Step1: Understand charging by friction
Charging by friction occurs when two materials rub against each other. Electrons are transferred between them.
Step2: Analyze electron - transfer rules
The material with a greater tendency to attract electrons will become negatively charged as it gains electrons. Here, the sweater became negatively charged, so it has a greater tendency to attract electrons compared to the leather jacket. Protons are in the nucleus and are not transferred during charging by friction, so options related to proton - attraction are incorrect.
