A positively charged glass rod is brought near uncharged metal sphere, which is mounted on an insulated stand. If the glass rod is removed, the net charge on the metal sphere is
- A negative charge
- B zero
- C \(1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}\)
- D positive charge
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) zero
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
If the metal sphere is connected to insulated
mount, then net flow due to induction of charges is zero and hence even after, the net charge on the metal sphere will be zero.
