- Problem Description Two small metal spheres A and B have different electric potentials. Sphere A has charge qA = -6x10-6 C and sphere B has charge qB = +2x10-6 C. The radius of sphere A is 0.25 m and the radius of sphere B is 0.50 m. The two spheres are then connected with a wire. Instructions In a neat and organized fashion, write out a solution which includes the following: A sketch of the physical situation with all given physical quantities clearly labeled. If the description above consists of an initial and final state, both of these states should be represented in your sketch. Draw charge diagrams of the spheres before and after they are connected. Charges may be drawn directly on your sketches. Describe in words and mathematically what happens if you connect the spheres with a wire. Calculate the final charge on each sphere after they are connected. What assumptions did you make? Evaluate your answer to determine whether it is reasonable or not.
