How do objects with opposite charge interact?
they attract each other
What do opposite electric charges do?
Two objects with opposite charges are attracted to each other. Two objects that are of like charge will repel each other.
How do charged objects affect neutral objects?
Objects with the same charge repel each other.
What happens when there is a build up of an electric charge on an object?
The charge repels so if it's a conductor the charge moves as far away as possible (the side of the object). It will also attract other objects with an opposite charge, or repel ones with like charge.
Why does a charged object always attract any other charged object?
It doesn't. Objects with opposite charges attract each other, those with the same charge repel.

What caused the amber to repel other objects when not rubbed?
Not all objects became electrified, objects "electrified" by the same machine appeared to repel each other (like magnets of the same charge); and objects "electrified" in different ways (one by touching an electric machine, for example, and the other, say, by rubbing amber) would attract each other (like magnets of opposite charge).

Why do two objects with the same charge always repel each other?
No. There are two kinds of charge, which we call 'positive' and 'negative' charge. Two charged objects will attract each other only if they have opposite kinds of charge. If they both have the same kind, then they repel each other.
How do neutral objects behave when placed near charged objects?
They repel, same with two negatively charged objects

When 2 objects have the same charge do they attract each other?
When two objects have the same electrical charge, they repel each other.
How do you find charge of an unknown material that either they positively charged or not?
Tie the unknown object and an object with a known charge to separate strings. Hold the two objects up by the strings, and bring them near each other. If the objects repel it means that the unknown object has the same charge as the known object. If they attract it means the unknown object has an opposite charge as the known object.
