what is additive nature of charge

Answers

Answered by Mithudivya26

the total charge on an object is equal to the algebraic sum of all the electric charges distributes in that object.

sarge: you are right but

sarge: Additive nature of charge is the important feature or property of charge. It means total charge is the algebraic sum of charges. It means if we have 3 charges 1C, 5C,3C. Then total charge would be 9C. If we assume -5C then sum of charges would be -1C.

Mithudivya26: it is the property of charge

sarge: yaa

Mithudivya26: ohhh sorry i just texted here by mistake

sarge: it's ok

Answer:

We know that the mass of an object is equal to the sum of the masses of its constituent particles. Owing to this, mass is said to be additive in nature. Like mass, electric charge also possesses additive property.

The total electric charge on an object is equal to the algebraic sum of all the electric charges distributed on the different parts of the object.
