Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Charging by Induction**: Charging by induction is a method of charging an object without direct contact with another charged object. This process involves inducing a charge in a neutral body by bringing a charged body close to it. 2. **Understanding the Process**: When a charged object (for example, a positively charged rod) is brought near a neutral object (like a neutral metal sphere), it causes a redistribution of charges within the neutral object. ...
