Question
which will a positively charged object attract?
an object that has a negative charge
an object that has a smaller positive charge
an object that has no charge
an object that has a larger positive charge
According to the law of electric charges, opposite charges attract each other. A positively charged object will attract a negatively charged object. Objects with the same charge (positive - positive) repel each other. A neutral object (no charge) is not attracted due to charge - based attraction in the sense of electrostatic attraction between charged objects (though there can be polarization effects in some cases, but in basic charge - interaction terms, the main attraction is between opposite charges).
