Charged Spheres & Forces Two identical metal spheres are firmly fastened to and electrically insulated from frictionless plastic air pucks that ride on an air table as shown below. The pucks are held in place as a charge of 2.0e-8 C is placed on sphere A on the left and a charge of 6.0e-6 C is placed on sphere B on the right. The pucks are then released so that the pucks with the spheres attached are now free to move without across the table. A.Draw Free-Body Diagrams for the pucks and spheres B.How do the Coulomb forces acting on spheres A & B compare? (Use a ratio) C.Which sphere has the greater acceleration? How would your answer change if the mass of the puck under sphere A was reduced by 50%? Slide 20-3

If a charged plastic rod is brought near an uncharged metal rod on an insulating stand, an uncharged metal ball near the other end of the metal rod is attracted to this end of the rod. Explain the motions of charges that give rise to this force. Follow-up: Describe a procedure by which you could give two identical metal spheres exactly equal charges. Slide 20-14 Examples
