Question
Do two positively charged balls attract each other?
✓
Answer
Yes, when the charge on the first ball is greater than that on the second ball, then due to induction some charge of opposite nature gets induced on the second ball. Therefore, the second ball will experience a force of attraction towards the first ball.
