identify thw two of charges: posite and negative.

Predict charge distributions, and the resulting

attraction or repulsion, in a system of charged
insulators and conductors.

Explain how charging by rubbing and charging

by induction takes place.

State the law of conservation of charge.

ELECTROSTATIC
STATIC ELECTRICITY (ELECTRICITY AT
REST) - an electrical charge caused by
an imbalance of electrons on the
surface of a material

 Why can there still be an attractive
force between a neutral object and a
charged object?

Consider a neutral sphere containing

the same positive and negative
charges.

Charge separation occurs when an

external charged sphere is placed
near the neutral sphere.

METHODS OF CHARGING

Net Charge- is the sum of the number of

electrons and protons.
 What type of charge is
transferred from one
material to another during
charging by friction?
Between two objects which
are being rubbed, how can
you determine which will
become negatively charged
and which will become
positively charged?
When a glass rod is rubbed with silk, glass rod loses electrons and
silk gains electrons. Glass rod becomes positively charged and silk
becomes negatively charged.
