When you get zapped by static electricity what is happening?
When you get zapped by static electricity, it means that there is an imbalance of electric charge on your body or on the object you touch. This causes a sudden flow of electrons to even out the charge, resulting in a small but quick electric shock or spark.
What objects have an electric charge?
Every object contains charge but it s usually hidden in daily life because object contains equal number of positive and negative charges. However, imbalance in any of the charges(positive or negative) in objects is responsible for their interaction with other charged objects.
To say that electric charge quantized is to say that the charge on an object is?
Quantized charge means that the charge on an object exists in integer units of the charge of an electron, e.g. object charge = Ne, where N is an integer number..
the buildup of electric charge on an object is type of electrsiy?
Static electricity.
The law of the quantization of the charge?
The principle that the electric charge of an object must equal an integral multiple of a universal basic charge.
What is the build-up of electric charge on an object?
Static charge is the buildup of electric charges on an object. This is a Biology question.
What is an excess of an electric charge on an object?
Static Charge

What atom has no balance between positive and electric charges?
No atom can have an imbalance in its charge; if it did, it would be an ion.
What is true about an object pulled inward in an electric field does it have negative charge object has charge of different field object has neutral charge or object has a charge same field?
Negitive
What is is an atom with an electric charge?
An atom with an electric charge is called an ion. An ion is the result of an imbalance in the number of protons and electrons. If there is more protons than electrons then your atom will have a positive charge. If more electons then it will have a negative charge.
What happens when charged object are brought near uncharged objects?
the electric-charge interaction occurs when a''charge'' object is near another ''charge'' or ''uncharde''object
What does an object get when it gains or loses electrons?
electric charge
To say that electric charge quantized is to say that the charge on an object is?
Quantized charge means that the charge on an object exists in integer units of the charge of an electron, e.g. object charge = Ne, where N is an integer number..
If an object a is attracted to a magnet does the abject a have a charge?
Charge is an electric field, A magnet has a magnetic field. If an object is attracted by a magnet it does not signify whither or not it has a charge.
What is it called when electric charge has accumulated on an object?
Static electricity .
