Helpful Guidelinesfor fl ectrostatics

If two solid obiects havea net charge (net negative:electronsadded;net

positive:electronsremoved)they attract or repeleachother dependingon
the signsof tie net charge.
Ifonly otre obiect hasa net charge,it will causechargesin a nearbyobjectto
redistributewithin the obiect(induc€d charge).lfthe nearbyobjectis a
cotrductor,the chargeswill moveto the far or near limits of the obiect
[strongeffectJ.]fthe nearbyobjectis a non-conductor,chargeswill only
moveslightlywithin the moleculesfweakeffect).
C. Ifa charged obiect touches on uncharged obiect someof the chargewill be
transfenedto the areatouched[non-conductor)or throughoutthe object
[conductor).
D, Ifa conductor with net chargetouches a grounded obiect, the conductor
will becomeelectricallyneutral (zeronet chargeJ.
E. lfa conductor with redistributed charge (induced charge) is touched by
a grounded obiect, the objectwill becomecharged{electronsadded:net
negative;electronsremoved:net positive).
