Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -When two neutral objects come into contact–especially in a dry environment–electrons can be knocked loose from one object and picked up by the other. The object that gains electrons becomes negatively charged, while the object that loses electrons becomes positively charged.
Detailed explanation-2: -So a neutral sphere will not polarize unless a net charge pushes/pulls the negatives to one side and the positives to another. But a neutral object does not have a net charge, so it cannot separate the charges in another neutral object.
