Best Answer

electron rearrangement is caused by the force exerted on the electrons by the oscillating charges of the field.

so in a way the rearrangement is caused by the charges of the field

What happens wheharges in an uncharged metal object rearrang without direct contact with the charged object?

In that case, the fact that the charges are rearranged - there is an electric dipole - can cause the charged object and the object with the zero net charge (but with an electric dipole) to attract one another.

What effect does grounding have on a charged object?

To ground an object means to connect it through a conductor to the ground, or Earth. Grounding is a way to prevent an electric charge from building on an object, or to get rid of an electric charge.

What is the electric charges that builds up on an object that has gained or lost electrons?

If an object is negatively charged, it has an excess of electrons. If it is positively charged, there are atoms which are short of electrons so you observe the positive charges of the atomic nuclei which are no longer balanced by the electrons that were normally in place.


When an object gains or loses electrons has it an electric charge?

That depends entirely on sign of the charge. If the object gains a positive charge, then that means the object as lost electrons, since electrons are negatively charge. If the charge is negative, then the object has gained electrons. It is also possible that the charge was created by a movement in protons, which are positively charged, in which case the object may not have lost or gained electrons.

What is the meaning of statically charged?

To be statically charged means that an object has more of one type of particles than another. For example, if an object with more electrons than protons is negatively charged so we say that the object has built up a static charge.


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).
