Question

use the drop - down menus to complete each statement. is the process of charging an object without touching it. is the process of charging a sphere by touching it with a charged rod. friction conduction induction

Explanation:

• Induction: Charging by induction occurs when a charged object is brought near another object without direct contact. This causes a redistribution of charges in the uncharged object.
• Conduction: Charging by conduction involves direct contact between a charged object (like a charged rod) and another object (such as a sphere). Electrons are transferred between them through this contact.
• Friction: Charging by friction is when two objects rub against each other, and electrons are transferred from one object to the other due to the frictional force. But in the given statements, for the first blank (charging without touching), induction is the relevant process and for the second blank (charging by touching), conduction is relevant.

Answer:

1. Induction
2. Conduction
