1) A neutral metal ball is suspended by a string. A positively charged insulating rod is placed
near the ball, which is observed to be attracted to the rod. This is because:
A) the ball becomes positively charged by induction
B) the ball becomes negatively charged by induction
C) the number of electrons in the ball is more than the number in the rod
UV
D) the string is not a perfect insulator
E) there is a rearrangement of the electrons in the ball
