You have 2 light weight metal spheres, each
hanging from an insulating nylon thread. One
of the spheres has a net negative charge,
while the other sphere has no net charge.
You now allow spheres to touch. Once they
have touched, will the two spheres:
A. Attract each other
B. Repel each other
C. Exert no force on each other

Respuesta :

Answer:

the correct answer is:

B. Repel each other

Explanation:

Once the two spheres touch and transfer charge between them, they will both acquire the same negative charge. Since both spheres will have the same type of charge (negative), they will repel each other according to Coulomb's law, which states that like charges repel each other.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. Repel each other
