Experiment: Take a glass rod rubbed with silk piece (+vely charged) Suspend it in a stand with the help of a thread. 

Bring a very charged Ebonite rod (rubbed with fur) near the glass rod.

Attraction is seen between the two rods. Now interchange them i.e. suspend B and bring A near it, again attraction is there. This show that unlike charges attract each other.

+vely charged ebonite rods Now take two glass rods (+vely charged) and bring them near each other, repulsion takes place. Similarly, if we take two -vely charged ebonite rods and suspend one of them and bring the second rod near it again the suspended rod moves away showing repulsion between like charges.
