Short Description of Topic

Definition

If a charged conductor comes in contact, or is in close enough proximity, with another conductor, it is possible to transfer this charge to the second conductor. This process is called charge transfer. There are multiple ways that charge can be transferred among objects. In addition, surfaces and objects can also be discharged.
