To solve the problem of how many electrons were transferred from one insulating sphere to another when they attract each other with a force of 0.1 N, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between force, charge, and distance The force \( F \) between two charged objects can be described by Coulomb's Law: \[ F = k \frac{|q_1 \cdot q_2|}{r^2} \] where: ...
