I assume you mean "neutral object". The answer is that the charged object will induce a separation of charges in the neutral object.

How it is possible for a neutral object to be attracted to a charged object?

A neutral object can be attracted to a charged object through the process of induction. The charged object causes the neutral object's charges to rearrange, creating an attraction between the two objects. This is due to the interaction of electric fields between the charged and neutral objects.


Why will a charged object be attracted to you?

A charged object will be attracted to you if you have an opposite charge because opposite charges attract each other due to the electrostatic force. This force pulls the charged object towards you, resulting in an attractive interaction.


What can be attracted by a positively charged object?

A negatively charged object. Also, a neutral object, through an induced separation of charges.


Must an object be electrically charged as well for it to be attracted by a charged object?

Provide your second object is an insulator, - able to carry an electrical charge - it will have an electrical charge induced on it by the presence of a nearby electrically charged object. So, the second object does not need to have its own independent electrical charge, it is sufficient that it can carry one.


Why is a neutral object attractred to a charged object?

This is known as electrostatic induction. As charged object (say positive) is brought near by the neutral object the opposite charges i.e. negative would get attracted towards and positive charges would be pushed away. Yet the object is neutral though the charges got separated. Now due to attraction of unlike charges the neutral is attracted towards the charged one.

They ATTRACT. I.e A negatively charged object/particle will be attracted to a positively charged object/particle.

What will effect will a charged object have on an object with the opposite charge?

It will attract it and/or be attracted to it. Opposite charges attract.

What are subatomic particle will attracted by a positively charged object?

Negatively charged subatomic particles, such as electrons, will be attracted to a positively charged object. This attraction is due to the opposite charges present, as opposite charges attract each other according to the laws of electromagnetism.


Why a peace of paper attracted towards a charged object?

Most of the time, in an object, its negative and positive charges are balanced, which makes it a neutrally-charged object. Sometimes, when some objects come into contact with other things, they gather more charges of one type. If there are more electrons, they are negatively-charged. If there are more protons, they are positively-charged. Because opposites attract, an object which is negatively-charged will attract another object which is positively-charged and vice versa.


How is the charge brought back to normal?

If an object is negatively charged, electrons will eventually drain off the charged object into the environment until the charge is neutral. If an object is positively charged, electrons will be attracted from the environment onto the charged object until its charge is neutral.
