Two identical metal objects are mounted on insulating stands. Describe how you could place charges of opposite sign but exactly equal magnitude on the two objects.
Expert's answer
Answer
Given that Two identical metal objects are mounted on insulating stands.
To place charges of opposite sign but equal magnitude on the two objects by method of induction charge.
Step1.
Initially total charge is zero.
Step 2.
Now using induction method charges move and sphere system become polarized.
Step 3.
So this shows the charge conservation
Therefore at last total charge is also zero.
