What was the positive charge in coulombs on the other

Reference no: EM13698515

Solve the following problem given below:

Problem: Two identical conducting spheres, fixed in place, attract each other with an electrostatic force of 0.134 N when their center-to-center separation is 68.5 cm. The spheres are then connected by a thin conducting wire. When the wire is removed, the spheres repel each other with an electrostatic force of 0.0527 N. Of the initial charges on the spheres, with a positive net charge,

Part A: What was the negative charge in coulombs on one of them?

Part B: What was the positive charge in coulombs on the other?

I need proficient help in the above problem.
