Charging by conduction:
- Charging by conduction involves the contact of a charged object to a neutral object.
- Hence when an uncharged conductor is brought in contact with a charged conductor, the charge is shared between the two conductors, and hence the uncharged conductor gets charged.
- In charging by conduction similar type of charge will generate on the uncharged body.
EXPLANATION:
- Charging by conduction involves the contact of a charged object to a neutral object.
- Hence when an uncharged conductor is brought in contact with a charged conductor, the charge is shared between the two conductors, and hence the uncharged conductor gets charged.
- In charging by conduction similar type of charge will generate on the uncharged body.
- So if a positively charged conducting rod is touched with a neutral metallic sphere that is kept on the insulating stand, the sphere will get positively charged. Hence, option 1 is correct.
