Part of the Electronics glossary: In physics, charge, also known as electric charge, electrical charge, or electrostatic charge and symbolized q, is a characteristic of a unit of matter that expresses the extent to which it has more or fewer electrons than protons. In atoms, the electron carries a negative elementary or unit charge; the proton carries a positive charge.
Static charges are caused by the movementof electrons. You have read that protons and electrons have electric charges. Objectsand materials can also have charges. A is a buildup ofelectric charge in an object caused by the presence of many particleswith the same charge.rotons cannot.For this reason, charges in materials usually result from the movementof electrons. The movement of electrons through a material is calledconduction. If electrons move from one atom to another, the atom theymove to develops a negative charge. The atom they move away fromdevelops a positive charge.
