What is vitreous and resinous charge?
  • 2 answers

Yogita Ingle 5 years ago

If two glass rods after rubbing with silk, hang near to each other, then they repel each other, figure (a)]. In the same way, two ebonite rods after rubbing with the cat’s skin hang near to each other, then they also repel to each other, [figure].

But when glass rod after rubbing with silk and ebonite rod after rubbing with cat’s skin hang near to each other, then they attract to each other, (figure (c)]. It is clear that charges on a glass rod and ebonite rod are the opposite. It means that charges are of two types. Charges present in the glass rod are called a positive charge or vitreous and charges present in the ebonite rod are called a negative charge or resinous.

Types of charge: positive (which is the same as vitreous), and negative (which is the same as resinous).
