When an object loses electrons it acquires an electric charge of?
It does not acquire any charge, it looses negative charge (the electrons), so becomes net positive.
How can an object have a neutral charge if part of the object has a positive and a negative charge?
If the positive and negative charges are equal, then the object has a 'net' neutral charge.
Is there any negative charge on a positive charged object?
Any "object" larger than elementary particles consists of positive and negative charges. If your object has a negative charge, it simply has more particles with a negative charge than particles with a positive charge.
What is the movement of electricity?
The movement of electric charge is known as an electric current, the intensity of which is usually measured in amperes
The charge an object has when it has gained electrons?
electric charge
Is an object that has no electric charge as a whole is negative or positive?
No. It is neutral.
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?
Negitive
How is discharging in a positive object different in a negative object?
The direction of the flow of electric current. In a positive object, electrons flow to it because it has an abscence of negative charge (aka electrons). In a negative object, it has an abundance of negative charge (electrons) so electrons flow away from it.
A negatively charged object is placed within a positive electric field. what happens to the object?
Electric Field between positive and negative charges. If the Electric Field in which both the positive and negative charges are present is stronger than the Electric Field between the two charges we are talking about, the the negative charge will move away from the positive charge in that positive direction of the field. If not, then the negative charge will get attracted to the positive charge and stay at the position of the positive charge. It will be pulled toward the source of the electric field. (Novanet)

A cat becomes negatively charged when it's brushed. How does the electric charge on the brush compare to the charge on the cat?
An object becomes negatively charged when electrons are transferred to it from another object it comes in contact with that has a higher negative charge. Therefore, the brush must have more a electrons than the cat and a higher negative charge.
What is the build-up of electric charge on an object?
Static charge is the buildup of electric charges on an object. This is a Biology question.
What is an excess of an electric charge on an object?
Static Charge
Is there any negative charge on a positive charged object?
Any "object" larger than elementary particles consists of positive and negative charges. If your object has a negative charge, it simply has more particles with a negative charge than particles with a positive charge.
The charge an object has when it has lost electrons?
Negative charge!!
What is it called when a object looses its charge?
Negative Charge
