WHAT DOES NEGATIVE CHARGE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Electric charge

Electric charge is the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field. There are two types of electric charges – positive and negative. Positively charged substances are repelled from other positively charged substances, but attracted to negatively charged substances; negatively charged substances are repelled from negative and attracted to positive. An object will be negatively charged if it has an excess of electrons, and will otherwise be positively charged or uncharged. The SI derived unit of electric charge is the coulomb, although in electrical engineering it is also common to use the ampere-hour, and in chemistry it is common to use the elementary charge as a unit. The symbol Q is often used to denote a charge. The study of how charged substances interact is classical electrodynamics, which is accurate insofar as quantum effects can be ignored. The electric charge is a fundamental conserved property of some subatomic particles, which determines their electromagnetic interaction. Electrically charged matter is influenced by, and produces, electromagnetic fields.

Definition of negative charge in the English dictionary

The definition of negative charge in the dictionary is a charge that has more electrons than protons and has a lower electrical potential.
