Question 10

A negatively charged rod is brought near a neutral insulator. What is the resulting force between the rod and the insulator?

Accepted Answer

An attractive force due to polarization of the insulator.

Question 11

Which process describes charging a metal object by induction?

Accepted Answer

Bringing a charged object near the metal, grounding the metal, then removing the ground and the charged object.
