Is there any possibility of transfering the total charge of a body, in another body, by the process of "conduction of charge" ?
Chargification of a body refers to the process of acquiring a net electric charge, either positive or negative. This occurs when the number of protons (positive charge) or electrons (negative charge) in an object is not balanced, resulting in a build-up of charge.
A body can become chargified through various methods, such as friction, induction, or conduction. Friction occurs when two objects rub against each other, causing a transfer of electrons and resulting in one object becoming charged. Induction involves bringing a charged object near a neutral object, causing a separation of charges within the neutral object. Conduction occurs when a charged object comes into contact with a neutral object, transferring some of its charge to the neutral object.
A positive charge refers to an excess of protons in an object, while a negative charge refers to an excess of electrons. These charges attract each other, while like charges repel. Positive charges are often denoted by the symbol "+", while negative charges are denoted by "-".
No, a body cannot have both positive and negative charges at the same time. This is because as soon as a body gains an excess of one type of charge, it will repel any additional charges of the same type. However, a body can have regions of different charges, such as a positively charged side and a negatively charged side.
Chargification can greatly affect the behavior of a body. Charged objects can attract or repel other charged objects, causing them to move or change direction. Additionally, charged objects can create electric fields which can influence the behavior of nearby objects. The strength of the charge and the distance between charged objects can determine the strength of these effects.
