True / False

The electric charge developed on glass rod rubbed with silk cloth is different from the charge developed on ebonite rod rubbed with fur.

Solution

When glass rod is rubbed with silk cloth, it acquires positive charge.
But when ebonite rod is rubbed with fur, the rod gets negatively charged.
So, charge developed on glass rod rubbed with silk is different from charge developed on ebonite rod rubbed with fur. Hence this statement is true.
