A We saw in Figure 23.16 that a neutral metal can was attracted to a positively charged glass rod because the rod polarized the can. Lets model this situation in a very rough sense.

Derive an expression for the ratio FA/FB. Comment on why a neutral conductor is attracted to a charged object. Figure P23.62
