How do particles with the same charge react?

Repel each other.


How come the leaves on a metal leaf electroscope repel?

An electroscope detects the static electrical charge on an object. If an object with a electrical charge is touched to the knob on top this charge is transferred to the rod and in turn to the metal leaves in the jar. Opposite charged objects attract and same charged objects repel. The charge on both leaves is the same polarity so they repel each other.


What magnets repel to?

Not only magnets, but metal repel. There are two kinds of charges that metal contain, positive and negative. If you push a positively-charged magnet towards another positively-charged magnet, they'll repel, maybe because one type of charge needs the other to attract. If this one type of charge comes close to another charge of the same kind, it won't receive what it needs, and feel "resent" to the other charge, then repel. If you push a negatively-charged magnet towards another negatively-charged magnet, they will also repel.


How does the type of electrical charge effect whether objects attract or repel?

Two electrically charged items that repel eachother, must both have the same type of charge. Either both have a negative charge, or both have a positive charge. Hence the reason the are repeling one another. If one was negative and the other was positive they would both stick together because of the attraction.


What charges repel each other.?

It is like charges that repel each other. A charge may be positive or negative. Two positive charges repel, as do two negative charges. A positive and negative charge, however, attract each other. This is a fundamental law of electrostatics: like charges repel and opposite charges attract.
