What else can I help you with?
What tool would you use to determine if an object is charged?
To determine if an object is charged, you can use a device called an electroscope.
How would you ue an electroscope tofindout whether an object is charged or no?
To use an electroscope to determine if an object is charged, first discharge the electroscope by grounding it. Next, bring the object close to the electroscope without touching it. If the leaves of the electroscope diverge, it indicates that the object is charged.
What would you use to see if somthing is charged?
You can use an electroscope to see if something is charged. When a charged object is brought near the electroscope, the leaves of the electroscope will either repel or attract each other, indicating the presence of a charge.
How can you tell when an object has been statically charged?
You can tell when an object has been statically charged if it attracts or repels other objects, causes a spark when touched, or gives you a mild shock when you touch it. Objects can become statically charged through friction or contact with other charged objects.
What occurs when an object is charged by conduction?
When an object is charged by conduction, it comes into direct contact with a charged object, causing electrons to transfer between the two objects. If the charged object is negatively charged, electrons will flow from the charged object to the uncharged object, resulting in the uncharged object becoming negatively charged as well.
What Charges an object by placing another charged object near it?
Induction is the process where an object becomes charged by placing another charged object near it. When a charged object is brought close to a neutral object, the charges in the neutral object redistribute, causing it to become charged.
Does a charged object effect an non charged object?
No.
Why is it possibe for an uncharged object to appear charged if no charge has been transfered to it?
An uncharged object can appear charged without charge transfer due to induction. When a charged object is brought near the uncharged object, it causes the charges within the uncharged object to rearrange temporarily, leading to an apparent charge on the surface. This is known as electrostatic induction.
WHAT IS CHARGING A NEUTRAL OBJECT BY TOUCHING that object with a charged object?
Charging a neutral object by touching it with a charged object is known as charging by conduction. When a charged object comes into contact with a neutral object, electrons can be transferred between the two objects, causing the neutral object to become charged.
What are some ways in which an object can become charged?
Some ways in which an object can become charged are friction, contact and induction.
What does it mean if an object is charged by induction?
When an object is charged by induction, it means that the object becomes polarized or temporarily charged in response to the presence of a charged object nearby, without direct contact. This occurs because the charges in the object rearrange themselves in response to the nearby charged object, leading to an imbalance of charges.
How is the charge on a charged object maintained?
The charge on a charged object is maintained by the movement of electrons within the object. If electrons are added or removed from the object, its charge will change. Charging methods such as friction, conduction, or induction can alter the charge on an object.
