Solution
The correct option is B Conduction An object can be charged with the help of conduction. In this method the process of charging occurs by touching the charged body to the uncharged body thus causing the charged particles to move from the charged body to the uncharged body. This results in decrease in the magnitude of charge in the charged body. However upon separation the uncharged body retains its charge. This process also causes some loss of charge.
