Question

alfredo makes a diagram to organize his notes about charging objects. which statement should he place in the region marked x? conduction induction it does not involve touching the objects together. the objects develop opposite charges. electrons do not move between objects. the objects have the same charge

Explanation:

• Conduction: In conduction, two objects touch each other. Electrons move from one object to another. The objects end up with the same type of charge. For example, if a negatively - charged object touches a neutral object, electrons move to the neutral object, and both become negatively charged.
• Induction: In induction, objects do not touch. A charged object is brought near a neutral object. This causes a separation of charges in the neutral object (opposite charges develop). But in conduction (where the region \(X\) is only for conduction properties), the key is that in conduction (unlike induction where no touching in the induction process itself, but in conduction, touching is involved in the charging process), when two objects are charged by conduction, they have the same charge.

Answer:

The objects have the same charge.
