This past week we learned about charges and away they interact with one another. In out tape lab, we got to witness the way like charges repel and unlike charges attract using tape. As the tape was removed from the table it either gained protons or electrons which explains why they repel and attract one another when brought together. This is also called, charging by friction. Again, it gained a charge while the tape was ripped off the table but became neutralized when excess charges were taken away or the process when our fingertips ran along the tape.
