A positively charged object is held near a grounded conductor as shown. This will make the grounded conductor: negatively charged, because the positive object attracts extra electrons up from the ground neutral, because all grounded objects are always neutral It is impossible to know, as it depends on whether the object on the left is a conductor or insulator positively charged, as some of the positve charges will jump to the grounded conductor
