The planet Earth is electrically neutral, it does not have a charge. Because oppoiste charges attract, there is a general tendency for electrical charges to become mixed together, and that is particularly true on a large scale, such as that of a planet.

∙ 11y agoThere are two different types of charges which show opposite behaviour to each other; in electric and magnetic fields. So called positive and negative, and it does not imply the arithmetical meaning of those signs.

Is an insulator positively charged or negatively charged?
I believe they'd are positively charged.
Which type of compound is composed of negatively and positively charged atoms?
Ionic compounds are composed of negatively and positively charged atoms.
Does every atom have a negatively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons?
No. Every atom has a positively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons.Unless you are talking about antimatter. The atoms of antimatter have negatively charged nuclei and surrounded by positively charged positrons
When a girl combs her hair then they are charged negatively or positively?
It is positively
Is an ion is a charged particle?
yes. negatively charged ion is called cation and where as a positively charged ion is anion.
Is lighting negatively charged or positively charged?
Negatively charge

Is an ion positively charged?
Some are, others are negatively charged.
What are the negatively charged electrons attracted to?
protons, which are positively charged
How do positively charged objects differ from negatively charged objects?
Positively charged objects have more protons than electrons. Negatively charged objects have more electrons than protons.
If electrons are rubbed from cat's fur onto a rubber rod does the cats fur become positively or negatively charged?
Positively charged,because electrons are negatively charged and when you remove them only protons remain and those are positively charged,what makes the fur positively charged as well.
