Solution

Conduction— The process of charging an uncharged conductor with a charged conductor by touching the uncharged one. Here the uncharged conductor shares the charge of the charged conductor.

Method of charging— Mount the uncharged conductor on an insulating stand take the charged conductor with an insulating handle to the uncharged conductor. If the charged conductor is positively charged then the uncharged will be charged positive and if the charged is negatively charged then the uncharged will be negatively charged.
