The gravitational force between two objects always acts to attract them together.

Electrically charged objects can attract if they have opposite charges, or repel if they have the same type charge.

Thus only gravity could have caused matter in the universe to condense together and eventually form stars and planets.

When two poles unlike poles are brought together. What happens?

They repel each other.


Which two particles would be attracted to each other?

The particles with similar charges with repel each other, This is commonly observed i n the magnetic poles where if one places the like poles that is two north poles or two south poles together it will repel reach other. This principle is very important to remember that like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract each other.


What happens when charged objects are brought near uncharged objects?

well if two bodies negatively charged are brought near each other, then there is a strong force of repulsion, as the electrostatic lines of forces terminate at these bodies, they exert later pressure on each other, hence the bodies repeal each other


The law of universal gravitation states that any two objects in the universe without exception?

attract each other


Which of these is the universal law of gravitation?

Universal Law Of Gravitation States That Every Object In The Universe Attracts Each And Every Other Object With A Force Which Is Directly Proportional To The Masses Of The Body And Inversely Proportional To The Square Of The Distance Between Them.First, all particles with mass attract each other through gravitic force. Two objects (say, you and the Earth) attract each other by the product of their masses (That is, the bigger they are, the more gravitic force they exert). Finally, objects with mass attract each inversely ( or opposite) the distance between them. (Move the objects two times farther away from each other, and the gravitic force between them decreases by four times.) Note that 4 is the square of 2. Another example: if you move the objects 3 times farther away from each other, the force between them decreases by 9 times. Note that 9 is the square of 3.

What does a charged object do to another charged object?

It depends on what the charge is on both of the objects. If object 'A' is negative and object 'B' is negative, the two will repel or move away from each other. This is the same if both 'A' and 'B' are positive. However, if one is positive and one is negative, then the two will attract, or move closer.


What happens if two objects have the same charge What happens if two objects have different charges Can you think of an example of this?

If two objects have the same charge, they will repel each other. If two objects have different charges, they will attract each other. For example, two negatively charged objects will repel each other, while a positively charged object and a negatively charged object will attract each other.


What is the law of the universal gravitation?

That any two object in the universe without exception, attract each other.


Two objects attract What do you know about the charge of each object?

The objects are most likely to be oppositely charged; however it is possible that one of them is charged and the other is uncharged. The two objects will still attract each other in case of the latter arrangement.


The measurement of the force gravity on an object is the object's?

The strength of the mutual forces of gravity that attract two objects toward each other is called the "weight" of each object in the presence of the other one. The strength of the mutual gravitational forces that attract you and the earth toward each other is called your weight on the earth. Nobody cares about the earth's weight on you, but it's exactly the same number.

How do charged objects interact with each other differently from the way a charged object interacts with neutral objects?

Two objects that are similarly charged will repel, while two objects with opposite charges will attract. Moreover, a neutral object will attract either charges


If two charges attract each other?

If two charges attract each other, it means they have opposite signs. Like charges repel each other and opposite charges attract due to the electrostatic force between them.


When two objects have the same charges they attract each other?

They do not. Rather, objects with opposite charges attract each other.


Can two similar charges attract each other?

No, two similar charges will repel each other due to the electrostatic force. Like charges repel each other, while opposite charges attract each other.


How do light charges effect each other?

Like charges repel each other, meaning that two positively charged objects will push each other away when brought close together. On the other hand, unlike charges attract each other, so a positively charged object and a negatively charged object will be drawn towards each other.


Do two positives attract or repel?

Two positive charges will repel each other due to the like charges. Positive and negative charges will attract each other.
