Ms. Piskor rubbed a balloon on an old sweater and the balloon gathered more electrons.
Where did the electrons come from?
The electrons went from the balloon to the sweater
The protons left the balloon and went to the sweater, making the balloon falsely appear more negative
The electrons left from the sweater to the balloon due to the friction
Trick question: protons and electrons never move
