For each statement select P for Positive, N for Negative, or Z
for Zero charge (Neutral). (If the first answer is positive, the
second negative, and the third neutral (zero net charge), enter
PNZ.
A) A negatively charged rod is brought close to a neutral isolated
conductor, but it does not touch. The rod is then removed. What is
the final charge of the conductor?
B) A negatively charged rod is brought close to a neutral isolated
conductor, but it does not touch. The conductor is then grounded
while the rod is kept close. If the rod is first taken away, and
THEN the ground connection is removed, what is the final charge of
the conductor?
C) A negatively charged rod is brought close to a neutral isolated
conductor, but it does not touch. The conductor is then grounded
while the rod is kept close. If the ground connection is first
broken, and THEN the rod is removed, what is the final charge of
the conductor?
