Sidney is experimenting with two charged objects. She holds the objects close to each other, but she makes sure they never touch. Which is the only hypothesis about the two objects that Sidney would find to be true? O A. If the first object has a positive charge and if the second object has a negative charge, then the objects push away from each other. B. If both objects have a negative charge, then the objects pull toward each other. C. If the first object has a negative charge and if the second object has a positive charge, then the objects push away from each other. D. If both objects have a positive charge, then the objects push away from each other.

2. A physics teacher rubs a glass object and a felt cloth together and the glass becomes positively charged. Which of the following statements are true? Circle all that apply.a. The glass gained protons during the rubbing process. b. The felt became charged negatively during this rubbing process. c. Charge is created during the rubbing process; it is grabbed by the more charge-hungry object. d. If the glass acquired a charge of +5 units, then the felt acquires a charge of -5 units. e. This event violates the law of conservation of charge. f. Electrons are transferred from glass to felt; protons are transferred from felt to glass. g. Once charged in this manner, the glass object and the felt cloth should attract each other. h. In general, glass materials must have a greater affinity for electrons than felt materials.
