    Conceptual Question Ch21#20

    When clothing is removed from a dryer, it can cling to the body due to static electricity. As the garment tumbles in the dryer, friction causes electrons to transfer between the clothing and the dryer, leaving the garment with an excess or deficit of electrons. This imbalance of electrons results in static cling that causes the clothing to stick to the body until the static charge dissipates.
