Question

Why does any substance acquire positive charge when kept near positively charged substance?

Answer 1

Answer:

During charging by conduction, both objects acquires the same type of charge. It a negative object is used to charge a neutral object, then both objects become charged negatively. ...In this case, electrons are transferred from the neutral object to the positively charged rod and the sphere becomes charged positively.

When two negatively charged objects are brought near each other, a repulsive force is produced. When two positively charged objects are brought near each other, a similar negatively charged object is brought near a positively charged object, an attractive force in produced.
