What is the process of bringing a negatively charged conductor in contact with the earth resulting in the conductor discharge until it is completely neutral called?
short
What materials make up the earth surface?
What materials make up the earth's surface?
How materials are cycled within the earth system?
identify ways materials are cycled within the earth system
A layer of charged particles above earth?
Ionosphere
What are natural vents that discharge steam or water from earth?
A geyser is a natural vent that discharges steam or water from Earth.
How you lightning is a form of static electricity?
Lightening is just a discharge taking place between charged clouds or in between a charged cloud and any charged region of the earth
Current is flowing through a conductor is it charged?
No, a charged conductor is either at an abundance or lack of electrons. The moment an earth is provided, a discharge begins, which is current flowing.
If a moveing object is generating unwanted staticthe remedy whud be?
perhaps to earth it? create a connection to earth so that it can discharge.
Is the earth an electrically charged object?
Yes, it has a very strong magnetic force. That's why compasses work...
What effect does grounding have on a charged object?
To ground an object means to connect it through a conductor to the ground, or Earth. Grounding is a way to prevent an electric charge from building on an object, or to get rid of an electric charge.
Why is it important that diamonds can cut through any materials?
Because Diamonds are the hardest object in the earth.
Imagine an object falling to the Earth Which of the following most accurately describes the motion of that object?
Denser materials tend to move downward, while less dense materials tend to move upward. good luck on study island

How does nuclear power plant help us?
it help us by giving electricity . and when earth quack occurs it does not discharge harmful radioactive materials outside. there fore it stops and cool the earth quack
How do you know that electrostatic forces are not the cause for the gravitational attraction between moon and earth?
Gravity affects objects proportionally to their mass, and electrostatic forces affect objects proportionally to their electrical charge. We can observe that the attraction of the planet Earth for various objects, which we describe as weight, is proportional to mass, not to electrical charge. Consequently we can confidently infer that the attractive force exerted by the planet Earth is gravitational in nature and not electrostatic. It is also true that if there were some enormous electrical charge on the Earth and the moon, causing them to attract each other, we could expect an enormous electrical discharge to take place by which the extra electrons would leave the negatively charged object (moon or planet as the case may be) and travel to the positively charged object.
What is an asteroid sized object that is made of rock and frozen materials?
It is a meteor or meteorite depending on whether or not it has entered the Earth atmosphere.It can also be a comet if it is mostly or only frozen materials.
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on Earth yet the weight is different?
Mass concerns the amount of materials an object is made of. Weight concerns gravity - the attraction between that object and the earth or the moon. The weight is less because the moon's gravitational pull is less. However the number of atoms contained within an object remains unaltered.
