Suppose there are four identical conducting spheres: A, B, C, and D. In each scenario, sphere A starts with a charge of -Q, sphere C starts out with a charge of +Q, and spheres B and D start out neutral. Then, the spheres are touched to each other and separated in the order described. Any spheres not in contact are held very far away. For each scenario, give the final charge of sphere D as a whole-number fraction of Q. For example, if the final charge of sphere D is -Q/7, enter "–1" in the numerator and "7" in the denominator. Remember, before each scenario begins, spheres A, B, C, and D are reset to charges of –Q, 0, +Q, and 0 again. Scenario 1: A and B touch and are separated, then A and C touch and are separated, then A and D touch and are separated. Qp = Qx Scenario 2: A and B touch and are separated, then B and D touch and are separated, then C and D touch and are separated. Qp = Qx Scenario 3: A and D touch and are separated, then D and C touch and are separated, then D and A touch and are separated, then A and B touch and are separated. QD Qx

A 0,04 kg polystyrene ball Y, covered by a thin layer of graphit is positively charged and placed in a measuring cylinder. An identical neutral ball is dropped into the measuring cylinder. X makes contact with Y. X is now repelled upward so that the centres of X and Y are 0,03 m apart. Calculate the initial charge on Y.
If two identical conducting spheres are in contact, any excess charge will be evenly distributed between the two. Three identical metal spheres are labeled A, B, and C. Initially, A has charge q, B has charge −q/2, and C is uncharged. What is the final charge on each sphere if C is touched to B, removed, andthen touched to A?
