This problem explores the behavior of charge on realistic (i.e. non-ideal)
insulators. We take as an example a long insulating rod suspended by
insulating wires. Assume that the rod is initially electrically neutral. For
convenience, we will refer to the left end of the rod as end A, and the right
end of the rod as end B (Figure 1). In the answer options for this problem,
"weakly attracted/repelled" means "attracted/repelled with a force of
magnitude similar to that which would exist between two balls, one of which
is charged, and the other acquires a small induced charge". An
attractive/repulsive force greater than this should be classified as "strongly
attracted/repelled".
