A negatively charged conductor is brought in contact with a neutral conductor.
Which choice most accurately describes the motion of charge between these two objects?
The electrons in the charged object are attracted to the protons in the neutral object. Some of the electrons move from the
charged object to the neutral object, resulting in two negatively charged objects.
The protons in the neutral object are attracted to the charged object. Some of the protons move from the charged object
O to the neutral object. Finally, the neutral object becomes negatively charged, while the initial charged object becomes
neutral.
The protons in the neutral object are attracted to the charged object. Some of the protons move from the charged object
to the neutral object, resulting in two negatively charged objects.
The electrons in the charged object are attracted to the protons in the neutral object. Some of the electrons move from the
O charged object to the neutral object. Finally, the neutral object becomes negatively charged, while the initial charged
object becomes neutral.
