Mrs. Adams class decides to try an experiment. She rubs a blown up balloon on Sandy's head. After this, she takes the balloon and places it on the side of the wall, where it sticks, instead of falling to the ground. Also, Sandy's hair is now sticking almost straight out. What causes Sandy's hair to act this way?
