Question

Where does induced charge come from on conducting sphere?

Answer 1

hello dear

When the sphere is grounded, therewill be a net surface charge inducedon the sphere which comes from the ground where an exactly oppositecharge will be left behind. Also here only a separation of charges occurs. If the neutral sphere is isolated, the totalcharge on it remains zero.

hope it will help u

Answer 2

When the neutral conducting sphere is isolated, the induced net surface charge on the sphere near the charge qq will have the opposite sign as the net surface charge on the far end of the sphere so that the total surface charge on the sphere remains zero. The induction only leads to a separation of positive and negative charges. When the sphere is grounded, there will be a net surface charge induced on the sphere which comes from the ground where an exactly opposite charge will be left behind. Also here only a separation of charges occurs.
I guess....
