Two positively charged objects (Object A and Object B) are 8 inches apart. When a positively charged ball is hung at an equal distance between the two positively charged objects, the ball moves toward object B (see figure). What can you conclude about the relative amount of positive charge on Object A and Object B? Provide support for your claim.

Your

Object B has more charge than Object A

Explanation:

Generally, unlike charges attract each other and like charges repel each other but it happens in a very rare case when like charges attract each other. It is so due to charge difference between the objects.

In the given example a positively charged ball moves towards positively charged object B because object B has more charge than object A and the ball. Due to large difference in the charges between two positive charges, positive charges are displaced at opposite end and object B get concentrated with negative charges that allows ball to move towards Object B.

Hence, the correct answer is "Object B has more charge than Object A".
