8. In Frame 1, two identical conducting spheres, A and B, carry unequal amounts of excess charge that have the same sign. Sphere B carries one and a half times the charge of sphere A. The spheres are separated by a distance d; and sphere A exerts an electrostatic force on sphere B that has a magnitude F. A third sphere, C, which is handled only by an insulating rod, is introduced in Frame 2. Sphere C is identical to A and B except that it is initially uncharged. Sphere C is touched first to sphere A, in Frame 2, and then to sphere B, in Frame 3, and is finally removed in Frame 4. How does the electrostatic force in Frame 4 compare to the electrostatic force, F, in Frame 1? B. B
