Answer: comb polarizes the piece of paper
Explanation:
Firstly, when the comb is used to rub dry hair, it always acquires a negative charge or electron which the hair carries, where the comb is induced with the electron gotten from the hair then immediately the comb which is negatively charged comes in contact with the piece of paper which is gets polarized by the comb, there is therefore bound to be attraction between them. This therefore explains unlike charges attracting each other.
Because there is an opposite charge to that of the paper. The law of electrostatics holds that unlike charges attract and like charges repel.
The answer is comb polarizes the piece of paper.
