   Not at all! -- If one is charged and one is not, the electromagnetic   
   forces on them will be VERY different.   
      
   I repeat: your approach of making false statements here and expecting to   
   be corrected is not working, and you are CLEARLY not learning much   
   physics, if any. You NEED to get some good textbooks and STUDY. Better   
   yet, enroll in a college or university physics course, so you will have   
   an instructor with whom you can discuss your many misconceptions and   
   confusions.
