Why is it that a charged object can attract a second object even if that object is neutral?
An object can have a net charge of zero, but also have sections that are charged, as long as those charges algebraically add up to zero, for example, a charge of +1 is balanced by a charge of -1 in a different location. So a charged object can be attracted to a particular part of a neutral object. This is a common phenomenon in molecular chemistry. Water molecules attract other water molecules in this manner, because they have positive and negative poles, even though the water molecule itself is neutral.

Must an object be electrically charged as well for it to be attracted by a charged object?
Provide your second object is an insulator, - able to carry an electrical charge - it will have an electrical charge induced on it by the presence of a nearby electrically charged object. So, the second object does not need to have its own independent electrical charge, it is sufficient that it can carry one.
When is an object electrically charged?
The Neutral is bonded to the ground at the FIRST main breaker, which is usually just as it comes from the meter. In normal residential applications, power comes from the meter, then to a panel. In that panel, the ground and neutral are bonded. If that panel feeds another panel, the second panel has to have its ground and neutral separated. Mobile homes have to have a main breaker outside the house, so the neutral is grounded there, and inside the mobile home, they are separated.
How does static electricity cause object to attract or repel one another?
In contrast to the attractive force between two objects with opposite charges, twoobjectsthat are of like charge will repel each other. That is, a positively chargedobject will exert a repulsive force upon a second positively charged object.
What are the three basic particles of an atom?
First Answer: The three basic particles of an atom are protons, neutrons and electrons. The proton and neutron comprises of the nucleus of an atom but electrons revolve around the nucleus continuously. The protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged while the neutrons are neutral. Thus we can say the whole atom is neutral. Second Answer: 1) Proton (Positive) 2) Neutron (Neutral) 3) Electron (Negative)
What happens if negative particles from one object move to another object?
If negative particles move from one object to another, the first object loses electrons and becomes positively charged, while the second object gains electrons and becomes negatively charged. This transfer of electrons creates an imbalance of charge between the two objects, leading to an attractive force between them due to their opposite charges.
Why do positively charged protons attract to each other?
There are two theroies to answer this. The first theorized that the gravitational attraction caused by there mass holds them together. The second suggests that there are sub atomic particles known as gluons that bind the nucleus together
The process imparting a charge to another object?
The process of imparting a charge to another object is known as charging. This can be done through contact (conduction), induction, or friction. When a charged object is brought near another object, it can induce a charge on the second object without direct contact.
Why 2nd ionization potential is greter than 1st ionisation potential of element?
In the first ionization an electron is removed from a neutral atom. In the second ionization an electron is removed from a positively charged ion. Since electrons carry a negative charge and opposite charges attract it is more difficult (i.e. takes more energy) to remove.
What two charged objects are made to touch each other and then separate?
In contrast to the attractive force between two objects with opposite charges, two objects that are of like charge will repel each other. That is, a positively charged object will exert a repulsive force upon a second positively charged object. This repulsive force will push the two objects apart.
Is attract a accented first syllable?
No, second.
Is attract accented on the second syllable?
yes
What is wave model?
The modern atom model that has a small positively charged nucleus surrounded by a large region in which there are enough electrons to make the neutral It has energy level on the outside with electrons on it negatively charged and the same number always of the protons which is the atomic number on the Periodic Table) and there can be only up to a certain amount of electrons on each energy level, 2 for the 1st, 8 for the second a nucleus that has protons and neutrons inside. The protons is equal to the atomic number and is the same number of electrons and is positively charged. The neutron has no electrical charge and are the particles that keep the protons from bouncing of each other and is the Atomic Mass found on the periodic table minus the number of electrons or protons. The protons (positive) attract to the electrons negative and the neutrons make the atom neutral
