Question

can induced charge can be greater than inducing charge or not?(explain)

Answer 1

Answer:

The induced charge (-Q) can never be larger than the inducing charge.

Explanation:

When a charged rod (inducing body) is held near one end, but the flow of electrons ceases after some time (though there is an almost inexhaustible supply of electrons in the metal sphere) because induced electrons repel the movement of fresh electrons getting induced.
