Taylor Tucker · Answer 1

The correct answer is D.

Induction is the method of charging an object by bringing a charged object close to it without touching. See the given figure to know how is it done.

Conduction is the method of charging an object by touching it with a charged body. The charged body losses the charge and become neutral. The uncharged body gains the charge and become charged.

The answer is D

Oppositely charged objects form in induction but not in conduction.
