When there is an electrical current, there is a movement of some charged particle. This may be any kind of particle - an electron (negative), a hole (positive), an ion (positive or negative), or some other particle.

What electric charge can either be positive or negative?
Positive charge is one of the two possible electrical charges, the other is ..........? the NEGATIVE charge.
Is it true or false that an electric charge creates a magnetic field?
Opposites attract, like charges repel each other.
What is a neutral electric charge?
A uniform electric field has symmetrical and constant field effect throughout the region is permeates. Or in easier language, the test charge should encounter constant force through out the region when the electric field is uniform or constant. So, according to your query the uniform field is there, where the effect of the uniform is constant.
What are the three types of measurements?
Meter Volume Weight ====================== Mass Length Time Electric charge All other measurements are combinations of these.
What happens to the electric field around a single charge when another chrage is added to the system?
The shape of the electric field is altered. The fields will react by either repelling or attracting each other.
What electric charge crates a magnetic field?
Moving charges produce magnetic fields.Answer 2In other words, when the charge moves along a conductor it creates an electric current. The current induces a magnetic field around the conductor.
What happens when there is a build up of an electric charge on an object?
The charge repels so if it's a conductor the charge moves as far away as possible (the side of the object). It will also attract other objects with an opposite charge, or repel ones with like charge.
What surrounds electric charge and exerts force on other charges?
An electric field surrounds the charge and exerts force on other charges.
How does Static electricity differ from electric discharge?
Static electricity is a charge built up on an object, usually from interacting with its surrounding, like shuffling your feet or rubbing fur. Its just a charge that sits there (static!) Electric discharge is when a charge moves between objects , this happens when you touch something and the static charge on you moves to the new object in one lump. One is a measure of charge, the other is the charge's movement. One is static, the other is usually fast (not always)
Is the electric forces that one charge exerts on another changed if other charges are brought nearby?
Yes when a charge is brought near to a electric charge ,then it will cause a change the electric field of the charge depending on the polarity of the both charges.
Are electrons the same as electric charge?
No. An electric charge is a property of certain particles (and larger amounts of matter); electrons have an electric charge of (-1) elementary units, but other particles also have electric charge. For example, protons have an electric charge of (-1), quarks may have charges like (2/3) and (-1/3), etc.
How is electricity different from other electricity?
Static electricity is electric charge just sitting there. Electric Current is electric charge in motion. And the original terms for electricity is Lightning, Thunderbolt.
What are electric charge?
the static electric charges refer to the charges which are at rest, in other words stationary positions.
An electric field surrounds an electric charge What additional field surrounds a moving electric charge?
Light and all other electromagnetic waves are produced by charged particles. Every charged particle has an electric field surrounding it.
What is a measure of the amount of electrical energy transferred by an electric charge as it moves from one point to another in a circuit.?
Electrical energy is measured in the same units as any other type of energy, namely joules. The amount of energy PER UNIT CHARGE is measured in volt.
Why does test charge moves with zero acceleration to any point in the electric field?
They don't. If there is an electric field, any electric charge will be subject to a force, and therefore to an acceleration. Only in the special case that the charges are on the surface of a good conductor, they won't move because the charges quickly move to a state of equilibrium. In other words, once such a balance is reached, they won't move around any more.
What are the electric charge rules?
Opposite charges attract each other.
