Answer:

Possible options are:

A. It will move toward the large ball because like charges repel.

B. It will move toward the large ball because like charges attract.

C. it will move away from the large ball because like charges repel.

D. it will move away from the large ball because like charges attract.

Answer: C. it will move away from the large ball because like charges repel.

Explanation:

All things are made up of charges. Opposite charges attract each other (negative to positive). Like charges repel each other (positive to positive or negative to negative). Most of the time positive and negative charges are balanced in an object, which makes that object neutral.

Static electricity is the result of an imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object. These charges can build up on the surface of an object until they find a way to be released or discharged. One way to discharge them is through a circuit.
