Charge Sharing

Identical spheres touch and share charge. Predict the new force as a fraction of the old.

Physics · Class 12 · Touching spheres and Coulomb's law · 6 simulations. For JEE, NEET and your boards.

What you'll learn

  1. Touch, touch: Identical spheres share charge equally
  2. Opposites meet: Sharing with signs
  3. Three touches: Keep a charge table
  4. Share, then dip: Changes that multiply
  5. Share and move closer: Distance works as 1/r²
  6. Find the charges: Two forces, two unknowns
