Question

What can we conclude from the attractive nature of the force between a positively charged rod and an object?

Answer 1

Answer:

E; The object is negatively charged

Explanation:

Here, we want to state the conclusion that can be drawn from a positively charged rod being attracted to an object.

Generally as we know, oppositely charged materials attract while the ones with same charges repel each other.

Thus, in this case, for the rod to attract the object, there must have been an opposite charge of negativity on the object

So we conclude that the reason why the rod attracted the object was because of the presence of opposing charges on both of them. And since the rod has taken the positive charge, it is only correct to state that the object is negatively charged
