Are neutral attracted to or repelled by positively and negatively charged objects?
Any interaction occur.
How a charged rod placed near an uncharged metal object can repel?
Charged rod and an uncharged metal object attract each other because free electrons in metal are either attracted or repelled by the charged rod. If the rod is positively charged then free electrons are attracted towards it and both objects attract each other. If the rod is negatively charged then free electrons are repelled by it and positive ions are attracted by the rod and both objects attract each other.
Why are cathode electrons attracted to anode?
The force between charges is repulsive between charges with the same sign, and attractive between charges with opposite signs. The cathode is charged negative, and the anode is charged positive. Electrons have a negative charge. So any electron in the neighborhood of a pair of charged electrodes will be repelled by the cathode and attracted to the anode.
Why a charged balloon does notattract a person's hair if the balloon is far from person's head?
The electric Field repels it but the positively charged balloon is attracted to the negatively charged hair. (opposites attract)
How do electric charges affect other ones?
An electric charge responses differently to other electric charges. When they connect (every touch, or even one getting closer to the other), there will be an electrostatic response. Either an attraction, meaning they "want" to get closer, or an electrostatic repulsion, meaning they "want" to get away from one another. The electric charges can be in any matter, not in a single one, but even in two separate matters.Each charge can be positively charged (it will experience a repulsion to other positively charged matters), and it can also be negatively charged (the substance that is charged will experience an attraction to other positively charged substances. However, it will be repelled from other negatively charged substances).
Will water be attracted or repelled by a phosphate group?
water will attracted because water is charged
Are neutral attracted to or repelled by positively and negatively charged objects?
Any interaction occur.
Are cathode rays deflected toward a negatively charged plate in an electric field?
Yes. Cathode rays, otherwise known as electrons, are repelled by a negative charge, and attracted to a positive charge.
Why are polar liquids always attracted towards the charged rod and not repelled?
because they have a positive and negative end
Can two positive charged bodies attracted?
No, the opposite would happen. The two bodies would be repelled.
What evidence did Thompson have that his glowing beam contained negative particles?
The beam was repelled by the negative charged plate and attracted by the positively charged plate
How a charged rod placed near an uncharged metal object can repel?
Charged rod and an uncharged metal object attract each other because free electrons in metal are either attracted or repelled by the charged rod. If the rod is positively charged then free electrons are attracted towards it and both objects attract each other. If the rod is negatively charged then free electrons are repelled by it and positive ions are attracted by the rod and both objects attract each other.
If some amount of positive charge is given to a soap bubble what will happen to it?
It will be attracted to any negatively charged objects and repelled by any positively charged objects. It will probably be mildly attracted by neutral objects but this would be a much smaller effect.
Are electrons repelled by the nucleus?
Yes, because an electron is negatively charged, and opposite charges repel.
In thomson's experiment why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate?
The experiment showed the relation of positive/negative charges. The beam was made of positively charged ions, which were repelled. -there is another answer to this question that says " because it was attracted to the positive charged plate" this is FALSE, this is just a person trying to make a smart remark. --------- Cathode rays are a beam of electrons; electrons are elementary particles with a negative electrical charge.
Why are cathode electrons attracted to anode?
The force between charges is repulsive between charges with the same sign, and attractive between charges with opposite signs. The cathode is charged negative, and the anode is charged positive. Electrons have a negative charge. So any electron in the neighborhood of a pair of charged electrodes will be repelled by the cathode and attracted to the anode.
Bacterial cell Acidic dyes carry what charge?
They carry negative charge and are repelled by negatively charged cell structures. Basic dyes are opposite (carry positive charge) and are attracted to negatively charged cell structures.
