    Rubbing two objects together may cause large number of electrons to be transferred from one object to the other. True or False.

    Answer is True.

    Explanation:

    When we Rub two different objects, the contact area increases or we can say friction increases. In response of rubbing two materials there is a transfer of electrons from one material to the other material. This causes one subject to become positively charged (Electron loser) and the other object become negatively charged (Electron gainer) This is also called Triboelectric Charging.

    Now If contact area of two different rubbing objects will be larger, Friction will be larger, the larger number of electrons would be transferred from one object to other.
