Charging Objects How do charges move from one place to another?
Where Does Electric Charge Come From? Well it comes from all matter, but only from specific areas of matterWell it comes from all matter, but only from specific areas of matter **Negative charges **Positive charges
Charges Can Exert Forces A charged object can exert a force—a push or pull—on other charged objects **Like charges repel and opposite charges attract
Electrical Force and Electrical Field Electric Force: the force between charged objects
Magnetic Fields like Electrical Fields? Just like magnetic fields, electrical fields exist around a charged particle
How Do Objects Acquire A Charge?
Friction While rubbing two objects together, electrons can be “wiped” from one object and transferred to the otherWhile rubbing two objects together, electrons can be “wiped” from one object and transferred to the other
Conduction When electrons are transferred from one object to another by direct contactWhen electrons are transferred from one object to another by direct contact
Induction When charges in an uncharged object are rearranged without direct contact with a charged objectWhen charges in an uncharged object are rearranged without direct contact with a charged object
