Imagine a positively charged rod is brought near a conducting sphere. If you touch the sphere and ground it, what is the charge on the sphere after removing your finger?
positive, neutral, or negative
When the positively charged rod is bring near to the conducting sphere, and it is earthed. The conducting sphere acquires negative charge from the earth.
Answer: Negative

A positively charged
sphere (A) brought close, without touching, to a neutral conducting
sphere (B). Sphere B connected to the ground through a wire.
What is the type of
electric charge on sphere B, after removing the grounding wire?
A positively charged sphere (A) brought close, without touching, to a neutral conducting sphere (B). Sphere B connected to the ground through a wire. A B + What is the type of electric charge on sphere B, after removing the grounding...
A positively-charged plastic rod is brought close to (but does not touch) a neutral metal sphere that is connected to ground. After waiting a few seconds, the ground connection is removed (without touching the sphere), and after that the rod is also removed. The sphere is now A) negatively charged. B) positively charged. C) neutral.
Why is A correct?
A rod-shaped positively-charged insulator is brought near a conducting sphere, and the sphere is momentarily grounded as shown in Diagram I. The conducting sphere is then placed near a nonconducting plane as shown in Diagram II. Which of the following statements is true for Diagram II? a. The conductor has a negative charge and is attracted to the nonconducting plane. b. The conductor has a negative charge and is not attracted to the nonconducting plane. c....
Problem 4 Select the answer which corresponds to the statements below neutral A positively charged ball is brought close to a neutral isolated conductor. The conductor is then grounded, while the ball is kept close. If the ball is first taker away and then the ground connection is removed, the conductor has a positive A positively charged glass rod repels an object suspended by a non-conducting thread. The charge on the object is cannot tell A positive point charge is...
A positively charged ball is brought near to a neutral conductor, polarizing the conductor. Then the conductor is grounded, which allows negative charge to flow onto the conductor. See below positat entnas a) Now the positive ball is taken away, and then the ground connection is removed. Is the final charge on the conductor positive, negative, or neutral? Carefully explain your reasoning. b) What if, instead, the ground connection is removed first. and then the positive ball is taken away?...
Problem Select the answer which corresponds to the statements below A positively charged glass rod repels an object suspended by a non-conducting thread. The charge on the object is Two neutral metal spheres #1 and #2, are mounted on insulating supports ey are connected by a me. A postres charged glass ro is brought near spheres emre connecting the spheres s r more、ndt echa ge d is then taken away. Now the charge on sphere #2 is A positively charged...
Consider the following experiment with a positively charged rod and two identical conducting spheres: • Step I: A positively charged rod is brought near, but does not touch, two identical conducting spheres in contact, where one of the spheres is closer to the rod than the other. • Step II: One of the spheres is grounded, and then the connection with ground is broken. The spheres remain in contact through this process. • Step III: The rod is removed. •...
A neutral conducting sphere is placed on a table. If a positively charged object or negatively charged object are held near, but not touching, the sphere, which of the following would occur? A) positive object: attraction negative object: repulsion B) positive object: attraction negative object: attraction C) positive object: repulsion negative object: attraction D) positive object: repulsion negative object: repulsion
Select the answer which corresponds to the statements below. (positive, negative, neutral and cannot tell A negatively charged glass rod attracts an object suspended by a non-conducting thread. The charge on the object is _______ . Two neutral metal spheres, #1 and #2, are mounted on insulating supports. They are connected by a wire, and a second wire connects them to ground. A positively charged glass rod is brought near sphere #1. The ground wire is removed and the rod...
You touch a metal sphere which is positively charged. Which of the following is a correct description of what happens next? (Select all options that you think are correct) 1. As opposite charges attract and your body is a reasonably good conductor, some negative charge (if mobile) from your body is attracted to the metal and reduces the net positive charge on the metal. In the process you acquire positive charge. 2. As like charges repel and your body is...
