We wish to calculate the value of eo. Two small metal conducting balls of mass m, each with charge q, are attached to massless strings of length L and suspended from the ceiling. Since the balls are both positively charged, they repel each other, and so at the ceiling the strings make an angle 0 with each other. In terms of m, q, L, 0, and g, what is eo?
A conducting sphere of radius r1 = 0.21 m has a total charge of Q = 1.6 μC. A second uncharged conducting sphere of radius r2 = 0.29 m is then connected to the first by a thin conducting wire. The spheres are separated by a very large distance compared to their size. What is the total charge on sphere two, Q2 in coulombs?

Two charged spheres on a frictionless horizontal surface are attached to opposite ends of a string & are in static equilibrium. The 39 kg red sphere has more charge than the 22 kg green sphere. The total charge magnitude on the spheres is 120 ?C & they have the same polarity. As a result the tension is 202.5 N & the centers of the spheres are 0.39 m apart. Find the charge magnitude on each sphere. Qred (bigger charge) = Qgreen (smaller charge) =
