'''Electrostatic induction''' is when a [[Electrical Charge|charged]] [[object]] induces a [[Electrical Charge|charge]] in a [[Neutral (Physics)Charge|neutral]] [[object]].

: [[Neutral (Physics)Charge|Neutral]] [[object]]s are made of an equal number of [[Positive Charge|positively charged]] [[proton]]s and [[Negative Charge|negatively charged]] [[electron]]s.: The [[electron]]s around an [[atom]] can move, so when a [[Electrical Charge|charged]] [[object]] is placed near a [[Neutral (Physics)Charge|neutral]] the [[electron]]s can move towards or away from that [[Electrical Charge|charged]] [[object]]. This is '''electrostatic induction'''.

To learn more about [[Electrostatic Induction]] click on each of the picture below for a PHET simulation and once the balloon is [[Electrical Charge|charged]] place it near the [[Neutral (Physics)Charge|neutral]] wall to see the '''induced''' [[Electrical Charge|charge]].
