Question

explain how can you make a hollow metalic body positively charged by the method of induction..​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Charging a Body by Induction When a charged object, is placed near an uncharged metallic rod, charged object induces an unlike charge on the near metallic rod and a like charge on its far side. In this case, the charges inside metallic rod are only polarised and no transfer of charges takes place. In this method, we observe that the induced charge is always equal to the inducing charge for a conductor. So we can induce a positive charge in a metallic conductor by placing a negatively charged object near it.
