Question

Consider the following statements -

1. Rubbing of hair through the comb

2. The circuit connected to a cell/generator

3. Static Electricity

4. Current Electricity

Which of the following is correctly matched?

• A. 1-3, 2-4
• B. 1-4, 2-3
• C. 1-2, 3-4
• D. No relation between them

Answer 1

The correct option is A

1-3, 2-4

Rubbing of two dry substances make them acquire positive and negative charge to each of the substance respectively, but they don't have any potential difference hence there is no flow of current. When the circuit is connected to the cell the current flows due to the potential difference across the terminals. Thus, the correct match is 1-3 and 2-4.
