Atoms have a higher number of positive charges than negative charges?
Cations, positively charged atoms e.g. Na+. The positive charges are the protons min the nucleus and the negative charges are electrons.
What are the two electric charges?
There are two types of charges: positive charges and negative charges. Positive charges are immobile, and are found inside the nuclei of atoms as Protons. Negative charges can be mobile, and have the source of electrons. These orbit the nuclei of atoms, and can be stripped from the atoms to be used as mobile charged through conductors, such as electricity moving through wires.
What the unlike charges?
the unlike charges are those which attract each other
Do opposite charges attract each other?
If the atoms have opposite charges (positive to negative) they will attract. If the atoms have the same charges (positive to positive or negative to negative) then they will repel. You can look at the Law of Electric Charges to get more information on this.
What determines whether charges attract or repel?
If charges are alike, they repel. If charges are opposite, they attract.
Is an object without a charge repelled by both positive and negative charges?
Positive and negative charges would have not effect on an object without charge.
Is negative the charge that attracts electrons?
Electrons are negative. so no positive charges attracts electrons because the opposite charges attract each other like ( + - ) but same charges repel like ( ++ ) or ( - - )
Will a negative and a positive ball attract when repelled by a metal rod?
Yes, a negatively charged object (negative ball) and a positively charged object (positive ball) will attract each other, regardless of the presence of a metal rod. The metal rod may influence the distribution of charges or provide a pathway for charge movement, but the fundamental attraction between opposite charges remains. If the rod is causing the two balls to be repelled from it, the attraction between the negative and positive charges will still persist.
Are the charges in the finger attracted or repelled by the charges in the doorknob?
I think they attract because if the charges repelled, they would push back the charges to create a magnetic field.
What happens when two objects with unlike charges come together?
That depends on what the charges are. There's an easy rule: opposites attract. So if one is positive and one is negative, they'll be attracted (the greater the charges, the greater the attraction), while if they are both positive or both negative, they'll be repelled (again, the greater the charges, the more they'll be repelled).
In terms of electrical charges explain why the balloons repelled each other?
Like (same) charges repel.
Could a negatively charged dye stain a bacteria?
The effect on the bacteria depends if the stain is an acidic or basic stain. Most bacteria are stained when a basic stain permeates the cell wall and adheres by weak ionic bonds to the bacterial cell, which is slightly negatively charged.
Are an electron and a proton attracted or repelled?
They are attracted because they have opposite charges.
In thomson's experiment why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate?
The experiment showed the relation of positive/negative charges. The beam was made of positively charged ions, which were repelled. -there is another answer to this question that says " because it was attracted to the positive charged plate" this is FALSE, this is just a person trying to make a smart remark. --------- Cathode rays are a beam of electrons; electrons are elementary particles with a negative electrical charge.
What are the two like charges?
a positive and a positive or a negative and a negative. Object with the same charge. Like charges repel each other.
In thompsons experiment why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate?
In Thompson's experiment, the glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because the beam consisted of negatively charged particles known as electrons. Like charges repel each other according to the principles of electrostatics, causing the beam to be deflected away from the negatively charged plate.
Are neutral attracted to or repelled by positively and negatively charged objects?
Neutral objects are neither attracted nor repelled by positively or negatively charged objects. This is because neutral objects have an equal number of positive and negative charges, resulting in no net charge and hence no interaction with charged objects.
