Electric charge is conserved in most interactions from "summary" of Physics 11 by British Columbia. Schools Department. Curriculum Development Branch
When examining interactions involving electric charge, one fundamental principle stands out: the conservation of electric charge. This principle states that the total electric charge in an isolated system remains constant over time. In other words, electric charge cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be transferred from one object to another.
This concept of charge conservation plays a crucial role in understanding various phenomena in the realm of physics. For instance, when two objects come into contact and transfer charge between them, the total charge before and after the interaction must remain the same. This principle holds true for most interactions involving electric charge, whether it be through conduction, induction, or other processes.
In situations where electric charge appears to be lost or gained, it is often the result of a redistribution of charge rather than an actual creation or destruction of c...
