The correct answer is (D) opposite in sign but less

*EXPLANATION*

When a conductor is brought near a charged object, the conductor becomes polarized, and an induced charge appears on its surface. The induced charge is:
- Opposite in sign to the inducing charge (because opposite charges attract)
- Less in quantity than the inducing charge (because some of the inducing charge's field lines terminate on the conductor, but not all)
This process is known as electrification by induction.
