Question

How does charging by conduction occur?

A) A charged object is brought near a neutral object without touching it.
B) A neutral object touches another neutral object.
C) A charged object touches a neutral object.
D) A neutral object is brought near another neutral object without touching it.

Answer 1

Charging by conduction involves the contact of a charged object to a neutral object.

C) A charged object touches a neutral object

Answer 2

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

When a charged body is brought in contact to uncharged body, the process of conduction takes place.

For example, there are two identical bodies one having charge 10 C and another is uncharged, when they kept in contact to each other the charges will be distributed.

It means after conduction the charge on both the bodies will be 5 C.
