Electrostatics and electricity

Post by deleted-300258 »

Three identical metal spheres X, Y & Z on insulated stands, carry charges of -2nC, +6nC & 0nC. X is moved and touched on Y. X is then moved and touched on Z. X finally moved back to its original position, the charges in nC on the spheres are now?

I have no clue on how to do this, please help

Hi Shanice1993,

This forum is intended for students who need help doing science projects. This sounds a lot like a homework problem, are you taking a physics class where this problem was assigned? If so, have you learned about electric charge yet?
