Q. A large nonconducting sheet $M$ is given a uniform charge density. Two uncharged small metal rods $A$ and $B$ are placed near the sheet as shown in figure. ThenPhysics Question Image

Electric Charges and Fields

Solution:

By electrostatic induction the charge will appear on $A$ and $B$ due to charged sheet $M$.
There may be two cases- when $M$ is positively charged and when it is negatively charged.
(shown in fig). In the figure all attract each other.
