Electrons can move from object to object. Electrons have a negative charge. So if an object is determined to have a positive charge, then some of the electrons have moved from the object to somewhere else.
Something with a neutral charge has the same number of electrons [-] and protons [+]. If electrons [-] leave, then there will be more protons, and a net positive charge. If an object gains electrons, then the object has a net negative charge.

How does body becomes negatively charge?
It gains electrons. The only charged particles which can freely move from one object to another are electrons. Electrons have negative charge. So adding electrons gives a negative charge, and removing electrons gives the object a positive charge.
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.
Envelope of gas surrounding an object in space?
The envelope of gas that surrounds an object in space is a space charge. Electric charge is treated as a continuum of charge that is distributed within a volume or area of space.
How does magnetism cause an object to move?
All magnets have a magnetic field If the object that you want to move by using the magnet is with in the magnets magnetic field it will move.
If a neutral object loses negative charge what will the net force be?
If a neutral object loses negative charge, then all we can say is that the objectwill be positively charged. We don't know anything about force until we knowhow much net positive charge it has, what othercharged object is in theneighborhood, what the size and sign of thatone's charge is, and the distancebetween the two objects.
When an object is charged by contact what kind of charge does the object have compared with the charge on the object giving the charge?
Assuming both were neutral to start, an object which is charged by contact with another object would have the opposite charge to the object with which the charge transfer occurred as charge is a conserved property. An object that loses electrons to another object would become more positive while and object which gains electrons would become more negatively charged. it can be negative, since the electrons are the only ones to move from a charge to the object positive charge does NOT move thus once it gave the electrons, the thing will get a positive charge while the object will be a negative charge pretty much i said it in easier words from the paragraph above ^^^^^^^^^^^^
When the object is charged by contact what kind of charge does the object have compared with that on the object giving the charged?
When an object is charged by contact, the object getting the charge has the same charge compared with that of the object giving the charge. so if the object giving the charge has a positive charge, so does the object getting the charge
When charging an object by conduction what happened to the charge an object?
Electrons move onto the object, giving it a static charge. Apex ;)
What is the charge that stays on an object?
A charge that does not move is called a static charge.
What is a charge that stay on an object instead of flowing in a current?
A charge that does not move is called a static charge.
What happens if negative particles from one object move to another object?
Then the charge of the giving object becomes more positive, and the charge of the receiving object becomes more negative.
What kind of charge does an object with more proton's than electrons have?
It has a positive charge.
What kind of charge does an object that has excess of electrons have?
negative
What kind of charge does an object that has an excess of electrons have?
negative
What kind of charge does an object have if it has more protons than electrons?
The " object " would have a positive charge because protons are positively charged./
What kind of charge does not move?
Static electricity is the non-moving kind.
An atom with an additional election has what kind of charge?
If an object has extra electrons, it will surely have negative charge.
