A charged metalic sphere A is suspended by a nylon thread. Another charged metallic sphere B held by an insulating handle is brought close to A such that the distance between their centres is 10 cm, as shown in Fig. (a). The resulting repulsion of A is noted (for example, by shining a beam of light and measuring the deflection of its shadow on a screen). Spheres A and B are touched by uncharged spheres C and D respectively, as shown in Fig. (b). C and D are then removed and B is brought closer to A to distance of 5.0 cm between their centres, as shown in Fig. (c). what is the expected repulsion of A on the basis of Coulomb's law? Spheres A and C and spheres B and D have identical sizes. Ignore the size of A and B in comparison to the separation between their centres.

Three metal spheres A,B and C are mounted on insulating stands. The spheres are touching one another, as shown in the diagram A strong positively charged object it brought near sphere A and a strong negative charge is brought near sphere C. While the charged objects remains near spheres A anc C, sphere B is removed by means of its insulating stand. After the charged objects are removed, sphere B is first touched to sphere A and then to sphere C. The resulting charge on B would be-
