Four conducting spheres labeled A, B, C and D are charged to the following values: qA = 2.0 ?C, qB = 3.0 ?C, qC = -2.0 ?C, qD = -6.0 ?C. The following three interactions then occur: qA is brought in contact with qC, then qC is brought in contact with qB and lastly qB is brought in contact with qD. [Report all answers in Coulombs.]What is the final charge of qB? What is the final charge of qC? What is the final charge of qD? What is the total final charge of the system?
