1. Electrostatic Induction
Arrangement of charges in an object which influenced by other nearby charges
Before induction
After induction
Opposite charges will attract and closer
2. Electrostatic Conduction
Movement of charges from one object to another when connected by wire or touch each other
Before connected
After connected
Movement of electrons
Only negative charge (electron) can move. Positive charge cannot move.
Electron moves until the number of electrons on both objects are same.
At example above:
Number of electrons in object 1 is 16 electrons and in object 2 is 4 electrons. After connected by wire, 6 electrons move from object 1 to object 2, that makes object 1 and 2 has the same electrons now, which is 10 electrons.
