Charge via friction (straw dancing)
When two straws are rubbed with a woolen cloth, they acquire the same kind of charge. The charges in the neutral straw get redistributed in such a way that opposite charges (opposite to the charge on the charged straw) come close to the charged straw. The attraction is caused by the attractive force between the induced charges and charges on the charged straw
