    What is electric charge and how does it affect matter?

    <p>Electric charge is the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field. It can be positive or negative and affects matter by causing like charges to repel each other and unlike charges to attract each other.</p> Signup and view all the answers

    What is the term for a piece of matter with no net charge, and how does it behave?

    <p>A piece of matter with no net charge is referred to as electrically neutral. It behaves in a way that does not experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field.</p> Signup and view all the answers

    What is classical electrodynamics and when is it still accurate?

    <p>Classical electrodynamics is the early knowledge of how charged substances interact. It is still accurate for problems that do not require consideration of quantum effects.</p> Signup and view all the answers

    How is electric charge conserved in an isolated system?

    <p>Electric charge is a conserved property in an isolated system, where the net charge remains constant. The quantity of positive charge minus the amount of negative charge cannot change.</p> Signup and view all the answers

    Which subatomic particles carry negative and positive charge in ordinary matter?

    <p>In ordinary matter, negative charge is carried by electrons, and positive charge is carried by the protons in the nuclei of atoms.</p> Signup and view all the answers
