Two identical conducting spheres fixed in place attract


Two identical conducting spheres, fixed in place, attract eachother with an electrostatic force of .220 N when theircenter-to-center separation is 80cm. The spheres are then connectedby a thin conducting wire. When the wire is removed, the spheresrepel each other with an electrostatic force of 0.0350 N.

(a) What is the charge on each of the two spheres at the end?

(b) What is the amount of charge that was distributed between thespheres when the wire was connected?

(c) What was the charge on the original negative sphere

(d) What was the charge on the original positive sphere?
