The phenomenon of an uncharged body getting charged merely by the nearness of a charged body is known as____________?
Correct answer: D. induction
- A. pholoelectric effect
- B. chemical effect
- C. magnetic effect
- D. induction
Explanation
Charging an initially uncharged conductor by bringing a charged body near it, without contact, is electrostatic induction. The nearby charge separates charges within the uncharged body.
