you sure??

I apologize for the confusion. When a negatively charged plastic rod is touched to a metal sphere, the negative charges will actually spread out evenly throughout the sphere. This is due to the principle of electrostatic repulsion, where like charges repel each other and spread out as much as possible on the conducting surface of the sphere. Therefore, the correct answer is: they spread out evenly.

here are different methods to electrically charge an object. Which method involves charging a conductor by bringing it near another charged object without the objects touching. (1 point)

is this correct??

Yes, that is correct. Induction is the method that involves charging a conductor by bringing it near another charged object without the objects touching.
