how does an object become charged? explain with an example

An object can be charged by 3 ways:

1) charging by friction. Eg. by rubbing two bodies.

2) charging by induction. Eg. by bringing a charged body near an uncharged body.

3) charging by conduction. Eg. by bringing a charged body and an uncharged body in contact.

very simple .......... when an uncharged body attracts or come is contact with charged body so the the current of charged 

body is transfered in uncharged body  for example if you touch an electric pole so you will get shocked means you will be charged and the charge of your body if touched with other uncharged body will be transfered

SUPPOSE I AM HAVING 6 TOFFEES .... I GAVE 4 TO YOU ... WHO IS AT A LOSS ... OF COURSE .... !!

NOW IMAGINE THOSE  TOFFEES TO BE ELECTRONS ( NEGATIVELY CHARGED IONS ) SO I WAS HAVING 6 ELECTRONS . WHEN I GAVE YOU 4 ELECTRONS  , 2 WERE LEFT WITH ME OR I CAN SAY THAT I LOST 4 ELECTRONS . SIMILARLY WHEN A BODY COMES IN CONTACT WITH A CHARGED BODY ,IT ALSO BECOMES CHARGED . THE ONE WHICH LOOSES ELECTRONS BECOMES POSITIVELY CHARGED AND THE ONE WHICH GAINS THEM BECOMES NEGATIVELY CHARGED ..

hope it helps !
