Question

Suppose identical, neutral metal spheres A and B are insulated from their surroundings and touching each other. A positive charge is brought near but not touching sphere A, and now the two spheres are slowly separated. Finally, the positive charge is removed. What charge will be left on sphere A and sphere B, respectively? A is negative, B is positive A in negative, B is neutral A is negative, B is negative A is neutral, B is negative A in neutral, B is neutral A is neutral, B is positive A is positive, B is positive A is positive, B is negative A in positive, B is neutral

Explanation / Answer

Initially A and B are kept in contact and a postively charged rod is brought closer to A, then due to induction we observed a negative charge on A and correspondingly a positve charge on B. Now, the spheres are moved away and hence

A is negative and B is postive
