Answer» Solution :A glass road RUBBED with silk acquirespositivecharge. Whenthis rod is brought close to TWO uncharged metalllic spheres A and B in contact , negative chargeis inducedon the rightside of sphere B, Fig (i) When the spheresare SLIGHTLY separated , theinducedcharges are shownin Fig.(b). ![]() (II) As the glass rod is removedsubsequently and separation is too small, the DISTRIBUTION of charges on A and B remainsthe sameas shown in Fig. (iii) When A and B are placed at a largedistance , the positiveand negative chargeson each flow and neutralise, so thatno chargeis left on A or B. |
