Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
C

Normally similar charges repel each other.

If one charge is much greater than another and both charged bodies are placed near to each other, then induced charge on body with smaller charge will have higher (and opposite) induced charge resulting attraction between both bodies.
