An electrical charge is attracted to a conducter (ie a material which conducts such as copper) therefore you can either use something more conductive leading away, or insulate the object.

What is the direct object in Go away?

"Go away" does not have a direct object. "Go" is a verb, and "away" is an adverb.


When you wish to discharge an object you can connect it to what?

To discharge an object, you can connect it to the ground or another object at a lower electrical potential. This allows excess charge to flow away from the object, neutralizing its charge. Common methods include using a grounding wire or touching the object to a metal surface that is grounded.


You walked away In his sentence does the verb have a direct object?

No.


How can you charge an object negatively with only the help of a positive charge?

To charge an object negatively with the help of a positive charge, you can use a process called induction. By bringing a positively charged object close to the object you want to charge negatively, the positive charge will attract the negative charges in the object, causing them to move away. This leaves the object with a net negative charge.


If you were given a positively-charged rod to charge an object by induction what charge will the object get?

The object will get a negative charge. When a positively-charged rod is brought near the object, it polarizes the charges in the object, causing the electrons to move away from the rod, leaving the object with a net negative charge.


What is true about an object pulled inward in an electric field does it have negative charge object has charge of different field object has neutral charge or object has a charge same field?

An object being pulled inward in an electric field typically implies the object has a positive charge, as oppositely charged objects are attracted to each other. If the object has a negative charge, it would be pushed away from the field. If the object has a neutral charge, it would not experience any force in the field.


What kind of charge does an object have when it has given away electrons?

negative


What is the difference between charging by conduction and induction?

Charging by Induction:- 1. No physical contact. 2. No exchange of charge. Charging by conduction:- 1. Two objects must be in physical contact. 2.Transfer of charge takes place. Difference between charging by induction and charging by conduction: Induction Conduction 1. In this process there is no physical contact between the objects. 1. The conducting surface is connected to a charged object to transfer the charge. 2. The net charge on the object is zero since equal amount of opposite charge is accumulated on the side away from the side where a charge is induced. 2. The net charge on the object changes after the charging process since there is a transfer of charge.


Does the number of neutrinos in an object affect its charge?

No, neutrinos have no charge so they neither take away nor add to the existing charge


What are induced charges?

Due to an object nearby, the electrons move to a specific direction as they are either attracted or repelled by it. Such as if there is a negatively charged object near an uncharged object, the electrons in the uncharged object will move as far away from the negative object as possible, and this is what you called an induced charge.


Why is the electrical charge of an atom positive?

The electrical charge of an atom is positive when it loses electrons. Electrons have a negative charge, so when an atom loses electrons, its overall charge becomes positive due to an imbalance of positively charged protons in the nucleus.


Two kinds of a verb?

Two kinds of verbs are transitive and intransitive. A transitive verb has a direct object. He gave her a kiss. What did he do? He gave. What did he give? He gave a kiss. Kiss is the direct object. To whom did he give it? To her. She is the indirect object. An intransitive verb does not have a direct object. He walked away. What did he do? He walked. Away is an adverb; it is not a noun. It is not a direct object. Walked is an intransitive verb.
