Why is a neutral dust particle attracted to a charged object?
If charge can flow within the neutral particle and you place it near a charged object, like charges tend to move toward the object and opposite charges move away. This splitting of the charge gives the neutral dust particle an electric dipole moment.
What is the effect of a paper clip on to a magnet?
Well, there are two poles to a magnet. A negative one and a positive one. Since metals are good conductors of charge and the paper clip is a metal object, they will attract. The charge of the paperclip is opposite the charge to one of the poles of the magnet.
What are induced charges?
Due to an object nearby, the electrons move to a specific direction as they are either attracted or repelled by it. Such as if there is a negatively charged object near an uncharged object, the electrons in the uncharged object will move as far away from the negative object as possible, and this is what you called an induced charge.
What is charge by induction?
Charging by Induction is a method of charging a neutral object, using a charged object, without establishing physical contact between them. _______________________________________________________________________ When a charged object induces a charge on another object without touching it.
Accumulation of electric charges on a object?
The build up of a charge on an object can be referred to as a static build up charge.
How can you determine if an object is magnetic?
You can determine if an object is magnetic by using a magnet to see if the object is attracted to it. If the object is attracted to the magnet, it is magnetic.
Which object will be strongly attracted to a magnet?
An object made of iron, nickel, or cobalt will be strongly attracted to a magnet due to their magnetic properties. Other materials like wood, plastic, or glass will not be strongly attracted to a magnet.
How do you know if an object is going to be attracted to a magnet?
Metals and other magnets are the only objects that are attracted to magnets. However, many metals are NOT attracted to magnets. Copper, stainless steel, brass, gold, silver, zinc, and aluminum are a few metals that are NOT attracted to magnets. The best way to discover if the object will be attracted to a magnet is to introduce it to a magnet.
Can magnet attract copper carbonate?
No, copper carbonate is not magnetic so it will not be attracted by a magnet. In order for an object to be attracted by a magnet, it needs to have magnetic properties, which copper carbonate does not possess.
What effect will charge object have on an object with the opposite charge?
It will attract it and/or be attracted to it. Opposite charges attract.
What types of force can a magnet exert on non-magnet object?
A magnet can exert force on a non-magnetic object through magnetic induction, attraction, or repulsion. The non-magnetic object can be attracted towards the magnet or repelled away from it depending on their relative orientation.
Does weight size or texture affect whether or not the object is attracted to a magnet?
Weight and size do not affect an object's attraction to a magnet. The key factor is the object's composition - specifically the presence of magnetic materials like iron, nickel, or cobalt. Texture also does not play a significant role; as long as the material is magnetic, it will be attracted to a magnet.
Which subatomic particle will be attracted by a positive charge object?
Electrons because of their opposite charge.
What will effect will a charged object have on an object with the opposite charge?
It will attract it and/or be attracted to it. Opposite charges attract.
Why will a charged object be attracted to you?
A charged object will be attracted to you if you have an opposite charge because opposite charges attract each other due to the electrostatic force. This force pulls the charged object towards you, resulting in an attractive interaction.
A neutral metal comb is held near an object with a negative charge. What happens to the comb?
The negative charge of the object will induce a positive charge on the comb, causing the comb to be attracted to the object.
What material must be found in an object in order for a magnet be attracted to it?
The object must contain ferromagnetic materials such as iron, nickel, or cobalt to be attracted to a magnet. These materials have unpaired electrons that align with the magnetic field, leading to attraction.
