Discussion about electricity, electric charges, and ways of charging a neutral object

2. a familiar form of energy
energy required to operate
appliances, devices, gadgets
and machines

5. atoms are neutral (no charge)
the number of positive and
negative particles are equal

6. some objects can lose electrons
and some can gain electrons.
why only electron is
transferred???

7. the number of protons and
electrons are not anymore equal
there is more proton compared to
electrons
so the objects is said to be

8. the number of protons and
electrons are not anymore equal
there is more electrons compared
to protons
so the objects is said to be

9. the number of electrons lost is
always equal to the number of
electrons gained.
LAW OF CONSERVATION OF
CHARGE

10. Charges cannot be
created nor destroyed,
but can be transferred
from one material to

11. an invisible force acting on charge
materials or objects
attract
repel

12. Like charges repel and
opposite charges
attract.

13. happens when a neutral object is
place near a charge object
charges in the neutral object
rearrange such that opposite
charges are brought near each

15. the process of removing excess
charges on an object
providing a ground

16. any object that can be a source of
unlimited electrons in order to
neutralize the charged object
GROUNDING

20. happens when two objects are in
direct contact
as object rapidly strip away, one
loses electron and the other gains
electron

28. a material that permits chargers
to flow freely within it
metals are usually good
conductors of electricity

29. are materials that hinder the flow
of charges
examples are glass, porcelain,
plastic and rubber

30. process wherein an object is
charged without actual contact to
any other charged object

39. process wherein a neutral object
is charged by direct contact with a
charged object

43. a path through which charges can
flow
