level questions: The transfer of electrons (HARD)

QuestionAnswer
Electric charge that accumulates on an object and remains stationary.Static Charge
What is static charge?Static charge is electric charge that accumulates on an object and remains stationary.
Materials that do not allow the easy flow of electric charge.Insulating Materials.
What type of materials can become electrically charged through friction?Insulating Materials.
The process of generating static charge by rubbing insulating materials together, causing electrons to transfer between them.Friction-Induced Charging
How is static charge generated through friction?Friction-induced charging occurs when insulating materials are rubbed together, causing electrons to transfer between them.
Electrons move from one material to another during friction-induced charging.Electron Jumping
What occurs when insulating materials are rubbed together during friction-induced charging?Electrons jump from one material to another.
After friction-induced charging, the two materials involved have an equal and opposite charge.Charge Distribution
How is charge distributed between two materials involved in friction-induced charging?The two materials have an equal and opposite charge.
Electrons have a negative charge.Electron Charge
What is the charge of electrons?Electrons have a negative charge.
The material that gains electrons becomes negatively charged, and the material that loses electrons becomes positively charged.Positive and Negative Charging
How are materials charged during friction-induced charging?The material that gains electrons becomes negatively charged, and the material that loses electrons becomes positively charged.
Because insulators do not allow easy electron movement, objects made of insulating materials retain their static charge.Insulators and Electron Movement
Why do objects made of insulating materials retain their static charge?Because insulators do not allow easy electron movement.
Objects involved in friction-induced charging, being insulators, do not easily lose their static charge.Remain Charged
Why do objects involved in friction-induced charging, especially insulators, remain charged?Because insulators do not easily lose their static charge.
Forces exerted between electrically charged objects.Electric Forces
What are electric forces?Electric forces are forces exerted between electrically charged objects.
Objects with the same type of charge (both positive or both negative).Like Charges
How do objects with like charges interact?Objects with like charges repel each other.
The force that pushes objects with like charges away from each other.Repulsion
What is repulsion in the context of electric forces?Repulsion is the force that pushes objects with like charges away from each other.
Objects with different types of charge (one positive and one negative).Opposite Charges
How do objects with opposite charges interact?Objects with opposite charges attract each other.
The force that pulls objects with opposite charges toward each other.Attraction
What is attraction in the context of electric forces?Attraction is the force that pulls objects with opposite charges toward each other.
Forces that do not require objects to be physically touching.Non-Contact Forces
Are electric forces examples of contact or non-contact forces?Electric forces are examples of non-contact forces.
Hanging a charged rod from a thread to observe its interaction with other charged objects.Demonstrating Electric Forces
How can electric forces be demonstrated using a charged rod?Hanging a charged rod from a thread and observing its interaction with other charged objects.
If a charged rod is attracted to another charged object, they have opposite charges.Opposite Charges Interaction
What does it indicate if a charged rod is attracted to another charged object?They have opposite charges.
If a charged rod is repelled by another charged object, they have like charges.Like Charges Interaction
What does it indicate if a charged rod is repelled by another charged object?They have like charges.
