Charges that are different ______________ each other.
attact
repel
30s - Q12
Where is the electric force the strongest?
close to a charged object
close to a non-charged object
30s - Q13
If two charged objects do not touch can an electric force act on them?
Yes, because an electric force can act at a distance.
No, because an electric force has to touch to act on them.
30s - Q14
What happens when you have a negatively charged balloon and put it near another negatively charged balloon?
They will stick to each other.
They will repel each other.
30s - Q15
What happens if you rub a balloon on your head and place it near a wall?
The balloon will become negatively charged and stick to the wall.
The balloon will become positively charged, and gravity will pull it to the ground.
