A girl brings a positively charged rod near a thin neutral stream of water from a tap. She observes that the water stream bends towards her. Instead, if she were to bring a negatively charged rod near to the steam, it will–

In normal cases thin stream of water bends toward a negatively charged rod. When a positively charged rod is placed near the stream, it will bend in the

When a positively charged rod is brought near to electrically neutral good conductor, then that good conductor,

To charge an object by induction. : Rub a comb or a balloon on your hair. As shown in the picture 8.4 on page 54 of your textbook, take the comb near a thin trickle of water from a tap what happes. Now draw the comb away from the trcikle and observe what happens. : Mark your observation with a tick. : When the charged comb is brought close to the flowing water, water gets attracted/repelled/remains as it was. : when the charged comb is taken away from the flowing water, it gets attracted.repelled/remains as it was initially.

Two uncharged conducting spheres, A and B, are suspended from insulating threads so that they touch each other as shown in the figure. While a negatively charged rod is held near, but not touching sphere A, someone moves ball B away from A. How will the spheres be charged, if at all ?

Assertion: A positively charged rod is held near a neutral conducting solid sphere as illustrated below. The sphere lies on a insulated stand. The potential of ground (or earth) is zero. The potential at point A (point A need not be centre of the sphere) is higher compared to potential of gound (earth). Reason: In this situation of assertion, the potential at the centre of conducting sphere is positive. the solid sphere being conducting, potential at each point in the sphere is same.
