What the **** is happening? Are they touching each other brought together, is induction or conduction happening?
I suppose it always attracts because an uncharged conductor is free to have electrons to flow through it from the insulator where it impedes flow. An insulator isnt supposed to be really "charged" to begin with.

The answer is C. If there is no charge on the conductor how can't it attract anything electrically?
