The fur acquires a positive charge but greater in magnitude than the rod.
After rubbing against the plastic rod, the fur contains more positive charges (protons) than
negative charges (electrons).
The fur acquires a net positive charge because electrons are transferred from the fur to the
plastic rod.
The fur acquires a positive charge that is equal in magnitude to the negative charge on the
plastic rod.
