You mean a neutral drop with a charged needle, right? Gets attracted until very close, then polarisation of the drop leads to repulsion. I know an interesting paper on this topic (with two spheres).
well drops of water are neutral but H20 has a dipole moment and so they will interact with a charged object as if it has a nonzero charge

That's understood. Here is the paper I mentioned, very good reading! https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10.1098/rspa.2012.0133 …
