What else can I help you with?
How can one determine the surface charge density of an object?
To determine the surface charge density of an object, you can divide the total charge on the object by its surface area. This will give you the amount of charge per unit area on the object's surface.
Why this statement is false a neutral object contains no charge?
A neutral object contains equal numbers of positive and negative charges, resulting in no overall charge. This balance of charges cancels out to give the object a net charge of zero.
What kind of charge does an object that has an excess of electrons have?
negative
What can you infer about any object that give you static shock when you touch it?
its a conductor
What is an object that gives you a static shock when you touch it?
A metal doorknob or light switch can give you a static shock when you touch it, especially in dry conditions. This happens when the surface has an imbalance of electric charge and discharges upon contact with your skin, causing a mild shock sensation. Using a humidifier or touching a grounded object before touching these surfaces can help reduce the likelihood of getting shocked.

What kind of charge does an object have when it has given away electrons?
negative
How can you make something negatively charged?
To make something negatively charged, you can add extra electrons to the object. Electrons have a negative charge, so adding more of them to an object will give it a net negative charge.
Give an example of where electrostatic charge might be a hazard?
You will get an electrostatic shock if you are electrically charged and you touch a good conductor of electricity.
How is a positive charge usually given to a neutral object?
A neutral object can be given a positive charge by transferring electrons away from the object, leaving a deficiency of negative charges. This can be achieved through methods such as rubbing the object with a material that readily donates electrons, causing the neutral object to become positively charged due to the imbalance of charges.
What is charge on our body?
I assume that 'charge' refers to the build up of static electricity. Walk across a nylon carpet and touch someone, and a spark of static electricity will give both of you a shock.
Why dont you get a shock when you rub your feet on the groung and then touch a wooden doorknob?
Wood is an insulator and does not conduct electricity like metal does. When you rub your feet on the ground, you build up a charge, but when you touch a wooden doorknob, the charge cannot flow through the insulating wood to give you a shock.
How does an object get a positive or a negative charge?
An object gives up one or more protons to get a positively charged objects and absorbs one or more electrons to get a negatively charged objects. This happens when two objects are rubbed together (ex. when you rub your feet on the carpet to give some one a shock;rubbing balloon on one's hair)
