2. A student has a neutrally charged glass rod and a neutrally charged silk cloth. When the student rubs the silk cloth on the glass rod, the rod acquires a net positive charge. What is the charge on the silk cloth after 
the student performs this experiment?
A. the silk has no charge
B. the silk has a charge that is equal in magnitude to the glass rod’s charge, but it is negative
C. the silk is positively charged and has a greater magnitude of charge than the glass rod
D. the silk is negatively charged and has a smaller magnitude of charge than the glass rod
