Question 1.
What happens to the charge of one object when it transfers charge to another?
Show hintHide hint
Think of the balloon and hair example.
Question 2.
Does the total charge in a closed system change?
Show hintHide hint
Consider interactions in an isolated system.
3Question 3.
What does the conservation of charge state?
- Charge can be created
- Charge can be destroyed
- Charge can only be transferred
- Charge can be neither created nor destroyed
Show hintHide hint
Think about everything we learned regarding interaction.
4Question 4.
True or False: The total charge in an isolated system can change.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider different scenarios of charge transfer.
Question 5.
If a system has a net charge of +10 C and undergoes processes that redistribute charge among its components, what will be the total charge after all processes?
Show hintHide hint
Reflect on the principle of conservation.
Question 6.
In a specific process, one particle loses 3 electrons and another gains 3 electrons. Calculate the effect on the total charge of the system.
Show hintHide hint
Remember that electrons are negatively charged.
