Yes, perspex can become attracted to a polythene rod when rubbed together due to the transfer of electrons between the two materials, resulting in a temporary static charge.

Copper is a good conductor of electricity, so when it is rubbed, any charge accumulated on its surface quickly redistributes throughout the rod and dissipates. This rapid conduction of charge prevents the copper rod from retaining a net charge like a polythene rod, which is an insulator and can hold onto excess charge more effectively.
anything can be rubbed its a matter of the transfer of electrons

When polythene is rubbed with wool, electrons are transferred from the wool to the polythene due to differences in their electronegativities. The polythene gains extra electrons, making it negatively charged, while the wool becomes positively charged due to losing electrons.
A polythene rod acquires a negative charge when rubbed with a duster. This is because electrons are transferred from the duster to the polythene rod, leaving the rod with an excess of electrons and a negative charge.
When a steel spoon is rubbed with polythene, the transfer of electrons can occur due to friction between the two materials. This results in the spoon becoming negatively charged, while the polythene becomes positively charged. This static electricity interaction causes the two materials to be attracted to each other.
The two polythene rods will repel each other. This is because when the rods are rubbed, they acquire a net positive charge which causes them to repel each other since like charges repel.
When polythene is rubbed with a duster, electrons from the duster are transferred to the polythene rod, giving the rod an excess of electrons and making it negatively charged. This transfer of electrons creates an imbalance of positive and negative charges on the surfaces, resulting in the rod becoming negatively charged.
Yes, when polythene is rubbed against a steel spoon, the two materials become charged due to the transfer of electrons between them. The polythene gains a negative charge, while the steel spoon gains a positive charge.
When a polythene rod is rubbed with a cloth, electrons are transferred between the two materials, causing the polythene rod to become negatively charged and the cloth to become positively charged. This results in the attraction between the two materials due to opposite charges.
When polythene is rubbed with a cloth, electrons are transferred from the cloth to the polythene, causing the polythene to become negatively charged. This transfer of electrons creates an imbalance of charges between the two materials, resulting in the polythene having a negative charge.
When a metal rod is rubbed against a polythene bag or sweater, the rod becomes charged with static electricity. The metal rod may be attracted to the polythene bag or sweater due to the opposite charges present on each material.
When you bring the polythene-rubbed refill pen closer to the other refill pen in the glass, you may observe them repelling each other. This is due to the buildup of static electricity on the pens from the rubbing of polythene, causing them to have like charges and repel each other.
To charge an object by friction, you need to rub two different materials together. This rubbing causes the transfer of electrons between the two materials, resulting in one becoming positively charged and the other becoming negatively charged. This process is known as triboelectric charging.
