Solution

Difference between charging by induction and charging by conduction:
Induction
Conduction
1. In this process there is no physical contact between the objects.
1. The conducting surface is connected to a charged object to transfer the charge.
2. The net charge on the object is zero since equal amount of opposite charge is accumulated on the side away from the side where a charge is induced.
2. The net charge on the object changes after the charging process since there is a transfer of charge.
