Which statement is correct?
a. The negative charge remains on the metal sphere. b. The negative charge spreads over the outside surface of the bucket and cover.
c. The negative charge spreads over the inside surface of the bucket and cover.
d. The negative charge spreads equally over the inside and outside surfaces of the bucket and cover.
e. The negative charge spreads equally over the sphere and the inside and outside surfaces of the bucket and cover.
