Thank you We sneak Then here's your shmoop du jour

00:05

brought to you by attraction attraction comes in many forms

00:09

there's magnetic attraction there's gravitational attraction and then there's the

00:13

kind of deep emotional attraction that can only exist between

00:16

us and a freshly glazed donut which of the following

00:20

pairs have charged conducting spears would exhibit attraction We went

00:26

with that And here the potential answers All right well

00:29

bunch of spears there we go Okay so we know

00:33

that two objects with like charges aren't going to attract

00:36

each other If we have to neutral spheres They're just

00:39

going to sit there like a couple of boards soldiers

00:42

in switzerland you know because switzerland neutral get it and

00:46

two positive spheres or two negative spheres All those will

00:49

be more repulsive than orange juice after we've just brushed

00:52

our teeth So b and c you're definitely out They

00:55

repel each other that way That only leaves d is

00:57

an option but he involves a neutrally charged sphere How

01:02

will that exhibit attraction It's neutral Well the neutral sphere

01:06

is made up of particles that have positive and negative

01:08

charges When the positives fear interacts with the neutral sphere

01:12

the particles in the neutral sphere will realign themselves The

01:16

positive particles will move away from the positive sphere in

01:18

the negative particles will move toward it It might take

01:21

some time but this process will create an attraction No

01:24

the correct answer is d a positively charged sphere and

01:27

a neutrally charged here would exhibit attraction Now we've gotta

01:31

run Mom just came home with a big box of

01:33

doughnuts Ten we're feeling a strong interaction already We love 00:01:36.439 --> [endTime] you Don't we love you so much Oh
