One way to charge two bodies simultaneously so that they acquire similar charges is to use a process called induction.
First, place the two bodies close to each other. Then, bring a charged object (such as a charged rod or balloon) near the bodies without touching them. The charged object will induce a charge on the bodies, causing them to acquire similar charges.
To ensure that the bodies acquire similar charges, make sure that the charged object is brought close to both bodies at the same time and at the same distance. This will help to distribute the charge evenly between the two bodies, resulting in them acquiring similar charges.

Method 1: Induction Charging
1. Charge a third body: Charge an insulated body (e.g., a metal sphere) by friction, contact, or electrostatic induction. 2. Bring the charged body near the two uncharged bodies: Place the charged body close to the two uncharged bodies without touching them. 3. Induce opposite charges on the uncharged bodies: The electric field created by the charged body will induce opposite charges on the nearby uncharged bodies. For example, if the charged body is positively charged, it will induce negative charges on the uncharged bodies. 4. Separate the uncharged bodies: Once the uncharged bodies have acquired opposite charges, separate them from each other.
Method 2: Electrostatic Induction with Grounding
1. Charge a body: Charge one of the two bodies (e.g., body A) by friction, contact, or electrostatic induction. 2. Connect body B to the ground: Connect the other body (e.g., body B) to the ground using a wire or conductor. 3. Bring charged body A near body B: Place the charged body A near the grounded body B without touching it. 4. Induce opposite charges on body B: The electric field created by body A will induce opposite charges on body B. In this case, the ground connection will allow electrons to flow from body B, leaving it positively charged. 5. Disconnect body B from the ground: Once body B has acquired a positive charge, disconnect it from the ground. 6. Remove charged body A: Remove the charged body A from the vicinity of body B.
Both methods will result in the two bodies having the same charge. They will either both be positively charged or both be negatively charged.
