Question
what does a positively charged object and a negativily object do when close together

When a positively charged object and a negatively charged object are brought close together, they will experience an attractive force due to their opposite charges. This attraction occurs because opposite charges (positive and negative) attract each other, while like charges (positive with positive or negative with negative) repel each other.
As they get closer, the strength of the attraction increases, and if they are close enough, they can influence each other's charges, potentially leading to phenomena such as charge redistribution. In some cases, if the objects are conductive, the negative charges may move toward the positively charged object, neutralizing some of the positive charge or creating a net charge.
If the two objects are brought into contact, they may transfer charge until they reach an equilibrium state, where the net charge is distributed evenly. However, if they are insulators, they may remain charged without transferring charge, but the attractive force will still act between them.
