What kind of charge can move from object to object?
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.
What can you say about the number of protons and electrons on a neutral object?
The numbers of protons and of electrons in a neutral object are the same.
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.
A charged object does not affect an object that has no charge?
This statement is not accurate. A charged object can still interact with an object that has no charge through electrostatic forces. The charged object can induce a charge on the neutral object and attract or repel it, depending on the type of charges involved.
How does A student puts a negatively charged object against a metal cabinet. Describe what happens to the charge on the object when it touches the metal cabinet?
Well the metal would obviously attract a charged particle for its charge less surface. The only possible way would be placing a positively charged object on the other side of the negative charged object such that it could counter effect the coulombian pull on the negative charge due to the metal. To keep the positive charge in place it would need to place it within oppositely charged electronic plates. This needs more amendments but thats another topic. When a charged object touches metal, the end result is usually what is known as a static shock.
How can an object have a neutral charge if part of the object has a positive and a negative charge?
If an object has both positive and negative charges in different regions, it can still have an overall neutral charge if the total amount of positive charge is equal to the total amount of negative charge. This results in a cancellation of the charges, making the object neutral overall.
An electrically neutral object can be attracted by a positively charged object because?
A neutral pith ball is still "charged", it just doesn't display excessively charged behavior. Since it is neutral, having nearly equal positive and negative charge, the proximity of the positively charged pith ball still attracts the negative charge present in the ball, inducing polarization moving the ball closer to the positively charged one. Once they make contact, the conductibility of the pith ball quickly accepts excess charge from the other, creating a like charge repulsion.
What does a positive and neutral object do?
A positive object is attracted to negative objects and repelled by other positive objects. A neutral object does not attract or repel other objects based on their charge.
Does a neutral object contain any charge?
No, a neutral object does not contain any net charge. This means that the positive and negative charges within the object balance each other out, resulting in a net neutral charge.
Is an object that has no electric charge as a whole is negative or positive?
No. It is neutral.
How does charge transfer between positive and neutral?
Charge transfer between a positive and neutral object occurs through the movement of electrons from the negative area of the neutral object to the positive object. This movement of electrons establishes an electric field between the two objects, causing the transfer of charge until equilibrium is reached.
When the total charge on an object is zero the object is electrically what?
The object with zero charge is electrically neutral.
What is the overall charge when an atom has more protons than electrons?
It has a positive charge.
What do you call to the object that has an equal numbers of positive and negative charge?
An object that has equal numbers of positive and negative charges is called electrically neutral. This means that the overall charge of the object is zero, as the positive and negative charges cancel each other out. Examples include a neutral atom or a neutral molecule.
Do positive and neutral attract each other?
In the context of physics, positive and neutral particles do not attract each other. Positive and neutral particles do not have opposite charges, so they do not exhibit electrostatic attraction. However, positive and neutral particles can interact through other forces, such as gravity or the strong nuclear force.
What type of charge is capable of attracting a neutral body?
A charged body with a net positive charge can attract a neutral body. When a positively charged object is brought near a neutral object, the positive charges in the neutral object will be attracted to the negative charges in the positively charged object, causing an attraction between the two objects.
When there is an equal amount of positive and negative charges on an object what is the object?
As equal amount of positive and negative charges are there then the net charge on the object is the algebraical sum of them and hence it becomes zero. So chargeless.
