Two identical conducting spheres, fixed in place, attract each other with an electrostatic force of 0.128 N when their center-to-center separation is 67.8 cm. The spheres are then connected by a thin conducting wire. When the wire is removed, the spheres repel each other with an electrostatic force of 0.0355 N. Of the initial charges on the spheres, with a positive net charge, what was (a) the negative charge on one of them and (b) the positive charge on the other? (Assume the negative charge has smaller magnitude.)
