How do you neutralize an electric charge?
If the electrical charge is in a rod, for example, just ground it. Make it touch the ground, or something that is touching the ground.
What to do about static electricity?
You can ground the item that has a build up of the static charge. Ground straps are typically worn when working on static-discharge sensitive components like circuit boards in a server. Otherwise, ground the item to discharge the static charge. Note that the correct term is "static charge", which refers to the buildup or deficiency of electrons on a charged body.
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 Static dissipative materials will allow a charge to be drained to ground?
in a slow controled manner
Do two things neeed to be touching in order to transfer charge?
No, not if there's enough charge. Clouds in the sky transfer charge to the ground quite readily, without touching. When that happens, we call it "lightning".
What does a SAM charge mean as in a background check?
A scam charge is a charge that could appear on a back ground check. A scam can involve obtaining money or objects illegally by presenting an untrue story.

What is the charge of the element I?
The atom is neutral; the anion has the charge -1.
How is an charge produced in a thunderstorm?
There is a negative and positive charge between the clouds or the sky and the ground. The positive charge is attracted to the negative. So positive begins to charge up before basically attacking the negative which is the ground.
What happens to the ground directly below a storm cloud?
An equal and opposite charge to the charge at the cloud base is induced. As the cloud moves, this charge moves across the ground, staying under the centre of the cloud.
Does voltage on ground mean open ground?
Voltage on ground can mean an open ground. It can also mean (high) current on ground, due to a ground fault such as reversed neutral and ground.
What is Provide a pathway to drain excess charge?
ground
What is the charge called when you push someone to the ground?
battery
What does it mean when all instrument lights flutter and car doesn't start?
Probably a low charge on the battery. A short to ground in the starting system is another possibility.
What happens before there is a lightning discharge?
The cloud's strong negative charge attracts the ground's positive charge
What is the charge of an atom germanium?
None, all atoms in their ground state regardless of element have no electrical charge.
