Shareen performs a skit to model a method of charging. In the skit, a painter shakes her hand and gets paint on her.

How does the skit model a method of charging?

A It models induction because the painter represents a neutral object and the paint represents electrons that are transferred through rubbing.

B It models conduction because the painter represents a charged object and the paint represents electrons that are transferred through contact.

C It models induction because the painter represents a charged object and the paint represents electrons that are transferred through contact.

D It models conduction because the painter represents a neutral object and the paint represents electrons that are transferred through rubbing.

The answer is B. It models conduction because the painter represents a charged object and the paint represents electrons that are transferred through contact.

The painter is the charged object because it is where the electrons (paint) come from. It cannot be C. because induction does not involve physical contact in transferring electrons.
