What is charging by conduction?


Open in App
Solution

Charging by conduction:

  1. Charging by conduction refers to the technique of charging an uncharged material by bringing it into touch with some other charged material.
  2. A negatively as well as positively charged item seems to have an uneven amount of charges.
  3. As a consequence, whenever a charged item comes into interaction with an uncharged conductor, electrons are transferred from the charged object toward the conductor.
  4. Whenever a negative object is being utilized just to charge a neutral object, both things become negatively charged, as well as vice versa.

Therefore, charging through conduction involves direct interaction with charged as well as uncharged bodies, and related items accumulate a very similar type of charge.
