4- Jamie does an experiment. She charges a pencil by rubbing it with a piece
of silk. Jamie finds that she can use the pencil to attract the silk. Why does
the attraction occur?

More info given below.

Explanation:

This attraction occurs as a result of static charge. You see an atom is referred to as the smallest particle of a substance; and when an atom gains or looses electrons it becomes unstable creating a difference in potential. However in this case rubbing induces friction which induces heat. This heat excites the atom to loose electrons creating a negative charge on the silk and a converse positive charge on the pencil.

hey there!

so, when you eat, your teeth chew and grind food into smaller pieces. this is mechanical digestion. then reactions aided by digestive enzymes break down large food molecules into smaller molecules. this is chemical digestion. the two processes change the food into simpler substances that can be used by the body for raw materials and energy.
