Solution

Step 1: Drawing the diagram of charging by conduction:
Step 2: Drawing the diagram of charging by induction:
Step 3: Difference between charging by conduction and charging by induction:
Charging by conduction Charging by induction
1. The process of charging an uncharged conductor by bringing it in electrical contact with a charged body is called charging by conduction. 1. The process of charging an uncharged conductor by bringing a charged body near it, but not touching it, is called charging by induction.
2. The charged body shares its charge with the uncharged conductor. 2. There is no actual transfer of charge from the charged body to the conductor. A charge is only induced on the conductor.
3. Charge produced on the conductor is of the same nature as the charge on the charged body. 3. Charge produced on the conductor is opposite to the nature of the charge on the charged body.
