Case Study
Faraday Cage: A Faraday cage or Faraday shield is an enclosure made of a
conducting material. The fields within a conductor cancel out with any external fields,
so the electric field within the enclosure is zero. These Faraday cages act as big
hollow conductors you can put things in to shield them from electrical fields. Any
electrical shocks the cage receives, pass harmlessly around the outside of the cage.
Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same:
Tribo-electric series:
The tribo-electric series is a list that ranks materials according to their tendency to
gain or lose electrons. The process of electron transfer as a result of two objects
coming into contact with one another and then separating is called tribo-electric
charging. During such an interaction, one of the two objects will always gain
electrons (becoming negatively charged) and the other object will lose electrons
(becoming positively charged). The relative position of the two objects on the tribo-
electric series will define which object gains electrons and which object loses
electrons.
In tribo-electric series, materials are ranked from high to low in terms of the
tendency for the material to lose electrons. If an object high up on this list (Glass, for
example) is rubbed with an object low down on the list (Teflon, for example), the
glass will lose electrons to the teflon. The glass will, in this case, become positively
charged and the teflon will become negatively charged. Materials in the middle of
the list (steel and wood, for example) are items those do not have a strong tendency
to give up or accept electrons.
(i) Materials in the upper position has _____ tendency to become positively charged.
a)low b)high c)no d)medium Write the correct option. Can you explain this answer?
(ii) Name two materials which do not have a strong tendency to give up or accept electrons.
a) Ebonite ,Nylon b) Plastic Wrap ,Teflon c) Nylon Cat fur d) Steel, Wood
(iii) If human hair is rubbed with amber ,how those will be charged ?
a)Both negative b) both positive
c) Hair will be positively charged ,Amber will be negatively charged .
d) Hair will be negatively charged ,Amber will be positively charged .
(iv) Triboelectric charging is the process of electrons of transfer between two objects
(a) by contact b) without contact
(c) by any one of the above d) by none of the above
(v) The object which loses electron becomes ______ charged and the object gains electron
becomes ________ charged .
a) negatively ,negatively b) Positively ,positively
c) Positively ,negatively d) Negatively ,positively
