How can you charge a balloon?
it has a positive charge so the negative item attract to it if it is light enough
Do two things neeed to be touching in order to transfer charge?
No, not if there's enough charge. Clouds in the sky transfer charge to the ground quite readily, without touching. When that happens, we call it "lightning".
What is lighthning?
lightning occurs because of a sudden gain of electrostatic discharge by clouds. It is uncertain how exactly the electrical charge forms but it is known that it is caused when clouds crash into each other. Heavier molecules in the cloud carry the charge to the bottom of the cloud. A lot of people think lightning travels either from the ground up or from the sky to ground. Both are true depending on the charge (whether is + or -). There is also cloud to cloud lightning which acts the same way. When the charge is great enough to move through air resistance, it moves or "strikes" it is still sort of one of those 'mysteries'
What is a rapid movement of electrical charge from one place to another?
an electrical charge produces a flash of light.
Can you charge your phone with solar power?
they sell solar phone chargers, but if it's less than 4x4 inches i wouldn't buy it because it won't provide enough power to charge it
Do have electrons negative charge?
Yes it does. If that isn't enough to blow your mind yet, then consider this:Every electron has exactly the same amount of negative charge.
What are the differences between a test charge and a point charge?
A point charge is an electric charge that is concentrated at one mathematical point with no spacial extent, A test charge is a charge that is small enough to have no effect on a system, but is used to study a property.
What damage does a large meteorite cause to the earth?
it either leaves a crater or if deep enough can make lava flow out of the hole. but if the meteorite hits the core then KABOOM!
Does the car battery effect the starter?
Yes, if the battery is weak it will not provide enough electrical energy to properly operate the starter.
Atoms gain electrons during chemical changes and have a what charge?
That depends on the chemicals. Theres not enough information to answer your question. Negative change
Will you get hit by meteorites if you visit Venus?
You might get hit by a meteor if it's big enough to get through the dense atmosphere before burning up. A meteorite is only called a meteorite once it is on the surface.
Does a AA battery have enough electrical power to kill you?
Not on it's own but if applied to a voltage multiplier as found in a Taser gun then yes it could. I don't think the current drain on one cell would be enough for one charge.
Why are skimmers turning orange in salt water pool?
A small electrical current is passing thru the salt water an it seems that the negative eletrical charge is passing from the skimmers being plastic an its possible from the spinning vortex created by the water pumps sucking are creating the positve electrical charge which is small but just enough to react with the salt in the pool an based on many studies with the larger negative charge an the small positive charge turned the water orange
How much does a electrical lineman make?
Not enough for what we are asked to do
Would the atmosphere of Earth protect us from a meteorite?
no, it is not strong enough to hold back a meteorite. It protects us from the suns deadly rays though. The atmosphere also gives us oxygen to breath, but if a meteorite the size of the earth came crashing down on us, then we would all be dead and the Earth would be destroyed.
What is proof that all atoms contains electron?
Definitions are enough to prove it. An atom is a combination of protons, neutrons and electrons with a balanced electrical charge. Thus all atoms contain electrons.
What does it mean when the battery light comes on a 1997 dodge avenger?
have an alternator, battery, and electrical check to find out what the problem is. battery may not be taking a charge, or the alternator is not putting out enough voltage.
