Raj a student of Class XII was performing an experiment to demonstrate the charging of neutral body by induction. He took an uncharged insulated conductor A and brought it near to an insulated charged conductor B as shown below: Then, what outcome he must have observed regarding the charge and potential of B? What value did display by Raj?

Answer:

When uncharged conductor A is brought near charged conductor B, charges are then induced on A as shown in the figure. As a result of it, the potential of conductor B is lowered but charge on it remains unchanged. Raj has a scientific attitude.
