4. Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. Charge Model: Electric forces can be attractive or repulsive Objects with the same sign of charge repel each other Objects with the opposite sign of charge attract each other Neutral objects are polarized by charged objects which creates attractive forces between them There are two kinds of charges, positive (protons) and negative (electrons). In solids, electrons are charge carriers (protons are 2000 time more massive). A charged object has a deficit of electrons (+) or a surplus of electrons (-). Neutral objects have equal numbers of + and – charges F e gets weaker with distance: F e α 1/r 2 F e between charged tapes are > F e between charged tapes & neutral objects Rubbing causes some objects to be charged by charge separation Charge can be transferred by contact

7. Copyright © 2007, Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley. How do charged objects and neutral objects interact? Part A A small ball with zero net charge is positively charged on one side, and equally negatively charged on the other side. The ball is placed near a positive point charge as shown. Would the ball be attracted toward, repelled from, or unaffected by the positive point charge? Explain. Is your answer consistent with what you observed in the tape activity? Explain. Through careful observations of physical phenomenon, scientists develop models or mental pictures to account for what is observed. These scientific models can also be used to predict physical behavior. From observations of electrical we can develop a model for electric charge.

Part B Use your model for electric charge to account for the electrical attraction between a charged tape and an uncharged metal ball. As part of your answer, draw a sketch of the charge distribution on the tape and ball both before and after they are brought near one another.
