No. Any charged object ... the positive and negative ions in table salt, for example... emits an electric field.

What is the difference between positive and negative electric fields?
Positive electric fields attract negative charges while negative electric fields attract positive charges.
What do electric fields start with?
Electric fields start on positive charges and terminate on negative charges..
Do electric fields point outward or inward?
We define the "direction"of an electric field to be the direction of the force it exerts on a positive test charge placed in the field. So if there is some charge inside a shell, the field outside the shell points outward if the charge inside is positive, and inward if the charge inside is negative.
What is the stationary of electric charge?
There is no such thing.If you mean, what is a stationary electric charge, that is normally called static electricity.
Why are beta particle is attracted to the positive electric field?
A beta particle is essentially an electron. Electrons have a negative charge and as such, they are attracted to positively charged objects and fields.
What is electrical fields?
If you mean an electric field it is the field that surrounds an electric charge. If you have two parallel plates with positive and negative charges, the amount of electric field in the space between the plates is the voltage difference divided by the distance. Electric field E is measured in volts per metre.
What causes water molecules to stick to other things?
There are number of factors that could b the cause of positive or negative charge e.g. Chemical Action , Heat , Light , Magnetic and Electric Fields.
How are negative and positive fields indicated?
because there effects are formatal during that there both feelings
When there are two or more charges the electric fields of each individual charge by repelling or attracting?
Two equal charges will repel one another. Two different charges (i.e., a positive and a negative charge) will attract one another.
If the electric fields of two charged objects form a closed pattern of field lines how are the objects charged?
They would be "oppositely" charged. In other words, one object would need to be positive and the other would need to be negative.
Why do magnets work?
Magnetic attraction occurs due to the effect of magnetic fields on electrical currents. An electric current would be the flow of electric charge (positive or negative depending on the amount of electrons present). A magnetic field is produced by moving electrical charges to effect other charges (basically).
Can an electric field be compressed?
Electric fields are similar to magnetic fields, and can be "compressed" by the imposition of other electric or magnetic fields.
