CONCEPT:

Charging by induction:

  • If a charged body is brought near an uncharged body, then one side of the neutral body (closer to charged body) becomes oppositely charged while the other side becomes similarly charged.
  • In charging by induction the charged body does not touch the uncharged body.
  • In charging by induction the charge generates on the uncharged body will be of the opposite nature as the charge on the charged body.
