Determine the electrostatic force exerted on sphere

Reference no: EM13503500

Two small identical conducting spheres are placed with their centers 0.40 m apart. One is given a charge of 1.2 10-8 C, the other a charge of -1.6 10-8 C.

(a) Find the electrostatic force exerted on one sphere by the other.

magnitude N

(b) The spheres are connected by a conducting wire. Find the electrostatic force between the two after equilibrium is reached, where both spheres have the same charge.
