We assume the foam plate has a positive charge when rubbed with paper towels. Lift the pan away from the charged plate using the styrofoam cup. Briefly touch the rim of the pan to neutralize it. Place the neutralized pan on the plate and observe the tape rise. When the pan is on the plate, the rim of the plate has a . This means that the pan base is charged because the net charge on the pan is . You know that this must be the case because as you lift the pan with the cup away from the plate, the tape on the rim goes down.

POSITIVE CHARGE,  NEGATIVE CHARGE,  ZERO

Explanation:

To solve this completion exercise, we must remember that charges of the same sign repel each other and in a metallic object (frying pan) the charge is mobile.

Let's analyze the situation when we touch the pan, the charges are neutralized, therefore when we bring the pan to the plate that has a positive charge, it attracts the mobile negative charges in the pan, until it is neutralized, therefore on the opposite side of the pan. pan (edge ​​with a glued tape) is left with a positive charge; therefore the edge and the tape, which is very light, have positive charges and repel each other.

We must assume that the frying pan is insulated so that the net charge is zero, since the induction process.

Consequently the words to complete the sentence are

When the pan is on the plate, the edge of the plate has a _POSITIVE CHARGE.

This means that the base of the container is loaded NEGATIVE CHARGE because the net charge of the container is ___ZERO_
