Hey,
I'm stuck on this Physics question in my summer class. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Two identical conducting spheres, 1 and 2, carry equal amounts of charge 1C and are seperated by 1m as shown in figure (a). (i) calculate the electrical force in Figure A. (ii) as shown in Fig b,c, and d suppose now that a third identical sphere 3, having an insulated handle and initially uncharged, is touched to sphere 1, then to sphere 2 and finally removed. What now is the force F' between spheres 1 and 2 in fig. d? In case if you can't see the diagram, figure has 1 and 2 in repulsion.
