Question

Ne group of students is investigating the properties of charged objects. their observations are listed below.

when two positively charged objects are brought close to each other, they push each other away.
when two negatively charged objects are brought close to each other, they push each other away.
when a positively charged object is brought close to a negatively charged object, they pull toward each other.

Answer 2

Answer: Similar charges repel

Step-by-step explanation:

The group of students is conducting an experiment in order to see the effect of negative and positive charges.

They observed that similar charges repel each other. Example: When two negative charges were brought together then they repel each other.
