This document describes an activity where students observe how balloons and glass interact after being rubbed with hair. The objectives are for students to see that objects can attract or repel based on their charges, and that objects carry positive or negative charges and neutral objects contain both. By rubbing balloons together, they gain the same charge and repel each other, while balloons rubbed with hair are attracted to a glass rubbed with silk, indicating they have opposite charges.
