Question

When no charge is supplied to or removed from a neutral body, then the amount of……..

• A. positive charge = negative charge in it
• B. positive charge > negative charge in it
• C. positive charge < negative charge in it
• D. no charge is present in the body initially

Answer 1

The correct option is A

positive charge = negative charge in it

1. Since there is no transfer of charges from one body to another, that is there is no charge supplied to or removed from a neutral body.
2. That means there is no charge on the body.
3. So, all positively charged particles and negatively charged particles cancel out each other.
4. So. the amount of positive charge is equal to the negative charge in it.

Hence, the correct option is (A).
