Is plastic wrap a positive or a negative?
It is a negatively charged object
Why is gravitational potential always negative?
because gravity is a force that acts down on an object. In physics up is positive and down is negative
How are positive numbers used in real life situations?
The measurement of a length of an object is always a positive number.
Can a speed of a body be negative?
The 'speed' of a body cannot be negative. But if you are stating the 'velocity' then it can be negative. Negative velocity means it is going opposite to the direction that you decided to call the positive direction.
How do you find the final velocity if the acceleration is negative?
It depends on what information you have. Also, velocity can be negative - it just means that the object is travelling in the direction opposite to the positive direction for the velocity vector.
A neutral object must have?
equal numbers of positive and negative charges.
What is true about the number of positive and negative charges in a charged object?
A charged object can have an unequal number of positive and negative charges, resulting in a net charge. An object with more positive charges than negative charges will have a positive net charge, and vice versa for negative charges.
When there is an equal amount of positive and negative charges on an object what is the net charge of the object?
The net charge of an object with equal amounts of positive and negative charges is zero. Positive and negative charges cancel each other out, resulting in no overall charge on the object.
What are the two like charges?
The two like charges are positive charges and negative charges. Positive charges repel other positive charges, while negative charges repel other negative charges.
Is an object without a charge repelled by both positive and negative charges?
Positive and negative charges would have not effect on an object without charge.
Does wool have a negative or positive charge?
both because every object has both positive and negative charges but mainly has positive charges.
When polarizing an object what happens to the charge in the object?
They separate, with positive charges on one side and negative charges on the other.
Is there any negative charge on a positive charged object?
Any "object" larger than elementary particles consists of positive and negative charges. If your object has a negative charge, it simply has more particles with a negative charge than particles with a positive charge.
How can an object have a neutral charge if part of the object has a positive and a negative charge?
If an object has both positive and negative charges in different regions, it can still have an overall neutral charge if the total amount of positive charge is equal to the total amount of negative charge. This results in a cancellation of the charges, making the object neutral overall.
What causes a substance to have a positive charge?
the object has to have more positive charges than negative charges.
What three charges can an object have?
positive, negative, and neutral
Why is an object electrically neutral?
An object is electrically neutral when it has an equal number of positive and negative charges, resulting in a balance of overall charge. This balance occurs when the number of protons (positive charges) is equal to the number of electrons (negative charges) in the object.
