When a charged object touches another object. Electrons can be transferred through friction. Electrons can also be transferred through contact and conduction. You can charge a neutral object by contact with a charged object. Charging by contact happens when electrons move from one object to a neutral object.

∙ 13y agoWhen you rub one material against another, they can get charged by friction. The material that's losing electrons is positively charged, and the material that's gaining electrons is negatively charged. The amount of gained and lost electrons is equal to each other. In other words, we can say that the total charge of the system is conserved.
A specific example is when you rub a glass rod against silk. The glass loses electrons, becoming positively charged, and the silk gains electrons, becoming negatively charged.

What are some examples of charging an object by polarization?
hydrolization
What are the different type of charging processes?
1.Charging by contact i. Conduction ii. Induction2.Charging by friction
What do you call the process of changing when no contact is made with the charging objects?
conduction
When can charging by contact be dangerous?
Charging by conduction involves touching a negatively charged object to a neutral object. It can be dangerous when using a part of the human body as the circuit .

Homebizzoppsforyou a scam or not?
According to some, it might be. Due to unauthorized charging and being unable to contact the company.
What is the charge obtained by a neutral object if you are charging by contact?
I believe you mean charging by contact as in electrons hitting the atom- then I suppose it would be a negative charge, because an electron is negative and it would make the charge of the opposing atom negative.
Transferring charge by touching is charging by?
CONTACT
Transfering charge by touching is charging by?
Transferring charge by touching is charging by CONTACT
What are the examples of change of energy from electrical to chemical?
Charging a battery.
What two methods of charging involve touching?
Friction and Contact
What is it called if you bump in to your opponent in netball?
It is called contact
What do you call the process of changing when no contact is made with the charging object?
conduction
