Two indentical metallic spheres A and ...

Two indentical metallic spheres A and B, each carrying a charge q repel each other with a force F. A third metallic uncharged sphere C of the same size is made to touch the spheres A and B alternately and then removed away. What is the force of repulsion between A and B ?

AI Generated Solution

To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps: 1. **Determine the initial force of repulsion between spheres A and B:** Given that each sphere carries a charge \( q \) and they repel each other with a force \( F \). 2. **Introduce the uncharged sphere C and touch it with A:** When an uncharged sphere C touches A, the charge on A will be shared equally between A and C. ...
