When the total charge on an object is zero the object is electrically what?
The object with zero charge is electrically neutral.
What is the difference between electrically charged and a neutral object?
Electrically polarized objects have had their charges separated, so one side will be positive, and the other side will be negative.
Must an object be electrically charged as well for it to be attracted by a charged object?
Provide your second object is an insulator, - able to carry an electrical charge - it will have an electrical charge induced on it by the presence of a nearby electrically charged object. So, the second object does not need to have its own independent electrical charge, it is sufficient that it can carry one.
When an object gains or loses electrons it has a?
It's safe to say if an object gains or loses electrons its electric charge has changed. If it was overall electrically neutral before it lost electrons, it would then have a positive charge; if it acquired electrons from initially being neutral, it would have a negative charge. At the atomic level this is called ionization.
A grounded electrically conductive object is forced to take the same potential as the what?
When an object is grounded it becomes electrically charged.
How does an electrically polarized object different from an electrically charged object?
It will still have a electrical charge.
When the total charge on an object is zero the object is electrically what?
The object with zero charge is electrically neutral.
What is the difference between electrically charged and a neutral object?
Electrically polarized objects have had their charges separated, so one side will be positive, and the other side will be negative.
How can you charge an object electrically?
Hook it up to a battery.
How does an object become electrically charge?
by gaining or losing electrons.

What does it mean when an object is electrically polarized?
Before an impulse is received, a resting neuron is polarized with different charges on either side of the cell membrane. The exterior of the cell is positively charged with a larger number ofsodium ions present compared to the interior of the cell. The interior of the cell is negatively charged since it contains more potassium ions than the exterior of the cell. As a result of the differences in charges, an electro-chemical difference of about -70 millivolts occurs.IT means that electrical charges on the outside of the membrane is positive while inside is negative
What is an object that is positively charge?
If an object has an unequal number of protons and electrons, then the object becomes electrically charged. An object that is positively charged has more protons than electrons.
What objects with equal amounts of positive and negative charge are said to be electrically?
An object with equal amounts of positive and negative charge is electrically neutral.
When does polarity occur?
Polarization occurs when free electrons of an electrically neutral object move to one side of the object, leaving the other side with a positive charge.
What has a positive charge if it loses an electron but has a negative charge if it gains an electron?
Any solid, liquid, gas, atom, molecule, object, or space that started out electrically neutral.
What is charging by polarization?
Charging by polarization is the separation of positive and negative charge. Overall, the object being charged is still electrically neutral.
