Detailed Solution

When a glass rod is rubbed with the silk cloth then the glass rod acquires a positive charge.
We can charge a material by friction, and there are two types of charged particles called positive and negative. If the negative charge in a material is more than the positive charge, then we say the material is negatively charged. Conversely, if the positive charge in a material is more than electrons, then the material will be positively charged. For example, when we rub a silk cloth on a glass rod. The glass rod is negatively charged, so the electrons from the glass rod are transferred to the silk cloth.
