प्रश्न
State two ways of charging a conductor.
Advertisements
उत्तर
The two methods of charging a conductor are:
- Conduction: The process of charging an uncharged conductor by touching with a charged conductor, the uncharged conductor shares the charge of the charged conductor.
- Induction: The process of charging an uncharged conductor with a charged conductor, without actually touching it is called induction. Here the nearer end of the uncharged conductor acquires a charge of Opposite nature as compared to the charge on a charged conductor.
