Charging of Insulators
Since charge cannot flow through insulators, neither conduction nor induction can be used to charge, insulators, so in order to charge an insulator friction is used. Whenever an insulator is rubbed against a body exchange of electrons takes place between the two. This results in appearance of equal and opposite charges on the insulator and the other body. Thus the insulator is charged.
For example rubbing of plastic with fur, silk with glass causes charging of these things.

Numerical Problems Based on Class 11 Physics Equilibrium of Concurrent Forces
Last modified on:3 years agoReading Time:3MinutesEquilibrium of concurrent forces Forces acting at the same point on a body are called concurrent forces. When a number of forces act on a body at the same point and the net unbalanced force is zero, the body will continue in its state of rest or of uniform motion along…

Numerical Problems Based on Class 11 Physics Rocket Propulsion
Last modified on:3 years agoReading Time:6MinutesRocket Propulsion The propulsion of a rocket is an example of momentum conservation. In a rocket, gases at high temperature and pressure, are produced by the combustion of fuel. They escape with a large constant velocity through a nozzle. The large backward momentum of the gases imparts an equal forward momentum…
