Problem

A positively charged rod has a charge of +12 μC+12\,\mu\mathrm C. When it touches a neutral conducting plate, the plate acquires a charge of +4 μC+4\,\mu\mathrm C. Assuming no external influence, what is the charge on the rod after they are separated? (a) +6 μC+6\,\mu\mathrm C (b) +8 μC+8\,\mu\mathrm C (c) +16 μC+16\,\mu\mathrm C (d) +4 μC+4\,\mu\mathrm C
