An uncharged conductor A is brought near a positively charged conductor B. The size of the conductor A is much greater than the size of conductor B. Then,

Options

A. the charge on `B` will increase, but the potential of `B` will not change.
B. the charge on `B` will not change, but the potential of `B` will decrease.
C. the charge on `B` will decrease, but the potential of `B` will not change.
D. the charge on `B` will not change, but the potential of `B` will increase.

Answer

b

Explanation

Charge will be induce on `A`, but total charge on `A` will remain zero. Negative charge to `A` will be more closer to `B` than positive charge on `A`. So potential of `B` will decrease.
