@sciencerelatevideo: #creatorsearchinsights #studysession What Is Electric Charge in Physics Electric charge is a property of matter that causes objects to attract or repel each other. Electrons carry negative charge and protons carry positive charge. Rubbing a plastic scale against your hair can transfer electrons, allowing the scale to attract small pieces of paper through electrostatic forces. Like charges repel and opposite charges attract. Can you explain why a rubbed scale attracts paper (electric charge, physics, positive charge, negative charge, electrons, protons, electrostatics, static electricity, physics basics, science facts) #Physics #ElectricCharge #Electrostatics
