What are three methods for discharging a charged object?

Answer 1

I have a limited understanding of electricity so if this isn't correct, my apologies. ( At least if my answer isn't right someone who knows might be tempted into answering your question by the chance to correct me!).

A conductor is never charged.

Therefore you cannot uncharge it.

I was taught, and have heard since, that electricity is like a river. As water flows down the river, so electricity flows through a conductor. A conductor "conducts" not by passing through, like through a tube, but as electricity enters in one end, electricity (electrons) are forces out the other end. As the number of electrons doesn't change significantly, the conductor never becomes charged, it merely conducts the negatively charged electrons.

If you measure the charge in a piece of wire that is not connected to anything, it will be 0. There is no current= no mass movement of electronsalong the wore in a uniform direction.

Things that can hold a charge are called a capacitor.

Answer 2

Three methods for discharging a charged object are grounding the object by connecting it to the Earth, using a discharge wand to transfer charge to another object, or touching the charged object with a conductor to allow the charge to flow away.

Answer 3

You can discharge an object by :

Grounding it (touching it against the ground)

Discharge at a Point( Sort Of like lightning)

the third one is simple exposure to the air.

Answer 4

Contact

Moisture

Discharging at a point

Answer 5

-- set a slow-burning fuse and get out of the way

-- touch it with the tip of a grounded screwdriver

-- issue it a DD-214

Answer 6

hmm uhhmm heres one..Touch it?
