What is the region surrounding a charged object in which other objects are attracted or repelled by an electric force called?
Electromagnetic field. An electric field.
How is the charge on a charged object maintained?
If the object remains ungrounded it will remain charged.
How do objects become negatively charged using the contact method?
when a negatvely charged object touches a neutrally charged object electrons move to the neutraly charged object making it negativly charged!
What happens when a charged object is brought to another oppositely charged object?
There will be flow of electrons from negatively charged object towards the positively charged object making an attempt to make both of them electrically neutral.
What object repels a positively charged object?
A positively charged object. Like charges repel.
What is the region surrounding a charged object in which other objects are attracted or repelled by an electric force called?
Electromagnetic field. An electric field.
Does a charged object effect an non charged object?
No.
How is the charge on a charged object maintained?
If the object remains ungrounded it will remain charged.
How do you know if an object has potential energy?
Usually it means the object has gained height. It could also happen if the object is moved to a planet with higher gravity. Potential NRG also occurs when a positively charged object moves into an area of higher potential in a electric or magnetic field, or when a negatively charged object moves into an area of lower potential in an electric or magnetic field.
What are some ways in which an object can become charged?
Some ways in which an object can become charged are friction, contact and induction.
How do objects become negatively charged using the contact method?
when a negatvely charged object touches a neutrally charged object electrons move to the neutraly charged object making it negativly charged!
What object repels a positively charged object?
A positively charged object. Like charges repel.
What happens when a charged object is brought to another oppositely charged object?
There will be flow of electrons from negatively charged object towards the positively charged object making an attempt to make both of them electrically neutral.
A charged object does not affect an object that has no charge?
It depends on the type of non-charged object. If the object is made of conductive material, a charged object will induce a separation of charge in the non-charged object. Its net charge will still be zero. If the object is not conductive, there will be no significant effect.
What does it mean when an object is charged?
When an object is charged, it either has a surplus or deficiency of electrons. If it has a surplus, the object is negatively charged, and if it has a deficiency, then it is positively charged (has more protons than electrons).
What object can be attracted by a charged object?
A negatively charged object. Also, a neutral object, through an induced separation of charges.
Why is a neural object attracted to a charged object?
I assume you mean "neutral object". The answer is that the charged object will induce a separation of charges in the neutral object.
