Types Of Charging

Types Of Charging

1. Charging By Friction

   • Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of two surfaces in contact. Rubbing two or more object together often causes the object to become charged as electrons are transferred from one material to the next.
     • Note: No electron are lost or created only transferred.

2. Charging means gaining or losing electrons.

   • Charging And Discharging
     • A charged object traps the charges until they are given a path to escape. Electrical discharge is a process of quickly transferred charges, often seen as a spark.

3. Charging By Conduction

   • 2 objects with different amount of electric charge come in contact with one another and the electrons move from one object to the other object.
     • Electrons move from object with larger negative charge to object with smaller negative charge.
       • This results in both objects balancing the charge

4. Charging by Induction

   • Charging a neutral object by bringing another charged object close to, but not touching, the neutral object
     • A charged object is used to induce a charge in a neutral object and then ground the charged object so it retains the charge.
