Two identical conducting spheres 1 and 2 carry equal & opposite charge and exert electrostatic forces of magnitude Fon each other: See diagram (a) They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters. A third identical conducting sphere 3 is uncharged. Sphere 3 is first touched to sphere 1: See diagram (b) Sphere 3 is then touched to sphere 2: See diagram (c) Finally sphere 3 is removed from the system. See diagram (d) As a result, the electrostatic force between spheres 1 & 2 becomes:
2 becomes: 2 (a o
