Chapter 26, Problem 26.30(choose chapter or problem)
The two metal spheres in Figure Q26.9 are connected by a metal wire with a switch in the middle. Initially the switch is open. Sphere 1, with the larger radius, is given a positive charge. Sphere 2, with the smaller radius, is neutral. Then the switch is closed. Afterward, sphere 1 has charge Q1, is at potential V1, and the electric field strength at its surface is E1. The values for sphere 2 are Q2, V2, and E2. a. Is V1 larger than, smaller than, or equal to V2? Explain. b. Is Q1 larger than, smaller than, or equal to Q2? Explain. c. Is E1 larger than, smaller than, or equal to E2? Explain.
