Homework Statement
Q If an object having charge 'q' is brought near an uncharged conductor (sphere) , would the charge induced on the nearby surface ( closer to the charged object ) be equal to '-q' ?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I think the charge induced would be less than '-q' . There is no reason for equal magnitude charge ( -q ) to be induced on the nearby surface of the neutral conductor .
Is that correct ?
Thanks
