What else can I help you with?
The buildup of charges on an object is called?
The buildup of charges on an object is called static electricity. This occurs when there is an imbalance of positive and negative charges on the surface of an object, leading to the attraction or repulsion of other objects.
What happens to an object with a positive charge and an object with a positive charge?
They attract.
What is it called when a neutral object gets a temporary charge?
When a neutral object gets a temporary charge, it is called "static electricity." This can occur through processes like friction or induction, where electrons are temporarily transferred between objects, leading to one object becoming positively charged and the other becoming negatively charged.
Which particles moves when an object acquires a net positive or negative charge?
Electrons are the particles that move when an object acquires a net positive or negative charge. In the case of a positive charge, electrons are removed from the object, leaving an excess of positive charge. Conversely, in the case of a negative charge, electrons are added to the object, creating an excess of negative charge.
Why is it possibe for an uncharged object to appear charged if no charge has been transfered to it?
An uncharged object can appear charged without charge transfer due to induction. When a charged object is brought near the uncharged object, it causes the charges within the uncharged object to rearrange temporarily, leading to an apparent charge on the surface. This is known as electrostatic induction.
When an object loses electrons it acquires an electric charge of?
It does not acquire any charge, it looses negative charge (the electrons), so becomes net positive.
An object without a charge is called?
An object without a charge is called electrically neutral.
What is an object called that has no charge?
An object with no charge is called neutral. This means that the object has an equal number of positive and negative charges, resulting in a balanced overall charge of zero.
What is it called when you charge with electricity?
When you charge an object with electricity, it is called electrification. This process involves transferring electric charge to an object, leading to an accumulation of positive or negative charge.
What is neutral object?
The object without charge is called Neutral object.
What is the charge that stays on an object called?
The charge that stays on an object is called static charge or static electricity. It occurs when there is an imbalance of electric charges on the surface of an object due to friction or contact with other charged objects.
What is the buildup of charge on an object called?
static
What is induced charge?
charges that 'appear' on an uncharged object because of a charged object nearby is called induced charge.
How does an atom maintain a positive charge?
if it looses an electron
If an element looses electrons what would be the charge?
-1
The transfer of charge when electrons move from a charged object to another object by direct contact is called what?
The transfer of charge when electrons move from a charged object to another object by direct contact is called conduction.
How can you charge an object negatively with only the help of a positive charge?
To charge an object negatively with the help of a positive charge, you can use a process called induction. By bringing a positively charged object close to the object you want to charge negatively, the positive charge will attract the negative charges in the object, causing them to move away. This leaves the object with a net negative charge.
