You 'scrape off' electrons from another material by rubbing both surfaces along/against each other. Electrons 'jump' over by this mechanical forces. (Wool, nylon, against plasics)

Why neutral bodies attract positively charged bodies?

no


how to charge a body by induction?

To charge a body by induction, bring a charged object near but not in contact with the body. This will cause the charges in the body to redistribute, leaving one side positively charged and the other negatively charged. Remove the charged object, and the body will remain charged due to the separation of charges induced by the presence of the charged object.


When is a body charged negatively?

A body is charged negatively when it gains an excess of electrons, causing it to have an overall negative charge. This can happen through processes like friction, induction, or contact with a negatively charged object.


Can a charged body attract a neutral conductor ball hanging on an isolating wire?

Yes, a charged body can attract a neutral conductor ball hanging on an insulating wire. When a charged body is brought close to the neutral conductor ball, it induces opposite charges within the ball through the process of electrostatic induction, causing it to be attracted towards the charged body.


When a positively charged body touches a neutral body the neutral body will what?

When a positively charged body touches a neutral body, the neutral body will become positively charged due to the transfer of some positive charge from the positively charged body.


How does a body become positively charged?

To charge it positively placed a negatively charge body near it. The positive charge of the sphere is attracted near to the surface close to the negatively charge body. To make it completely positive just earth it (by touching it). This process is known as induction. To charge a body negatively is similar to the aforementioned method.


Why will electrons moved from negatively charge body?

Electrons will move from a negatively charged body to a positively charged body because opposite charges attract. The negatively charged electrons are naturally drawn towards the positively charged body in order to balance out the charge distribution and achieve equilibrium.


If one body is positively charged and another body is negatively charged what do free electrons tend to do?

Free electrons tend to move away from the negatively-charged body and toward the positively-charged body.They will transfer to the positively charged body in an attempt to create a neutral charge.Move from the negatively charged body to the positively charged body.move from the negatively charged body to the positively charged body!-----------I just finished the Penn Foster test, and the answers for a 100 are (from left to right):A D CA C BD B CC D DD C CA B DC A BD A C Byou actually had two of the answers mixed up but i fixed them--after i got them wrong on my test. so now its 100%


Does your body have electric charge?

yes your body is both negatively charged and positively charged on the extracellular surface


Can anything solid become electrically charged?

Yup it depends upon the type of Solid. Solids also have Positive, Negative and Neutral charge!


If one body is positively charged and another one is negatively charged free electrons tend to?

Remain in the positively charged body.


What are the two methods of charging a body?

The two methods of charging a body are charging by friction (rubbing two objects together to transfer electrons) and charging by induction (bringing a charged object near a neutral object, causing a separation of charges).
