An approximate microscopic model is proposed for the explanation of the electric signal dU = k_B dT/(2e) observed by A.S. Rybalko in He II in the experiments with standing half-wave of second sound. The model is based on the idea, due to Gutlyanskii, of the one-directional polarization of He-4 atoms located at the electrode surface. The calculated parameters of the electric signal are in approximate agreement with the experimental ones. It is also predicted that a standing half-wave of first sound should induce a variable signal with amplitude dU ~ dp/(en) ~ 3*10^{-5} dp*V/atm at the electrode. It is shown also that the dependence of the polarizability of helium on temperature, A(T), can be explained if the tidal polarization of atoms is taken into account. A possibility of the existence of the "dry" friction in He II at temperatures T < 0.5-1 K is discussed.
