category

physics

options

  1. An electric field will be induced within the conducting sphere.
  2. The spheres will experience an electrostatic attraction.
  3. The nonconducting sphere will lose all its charge to the conducting sphere.
  4. The spheres will not experience any electrostatic force.
  5. The spheres will experience an electrostatic force, but it will not be significant.
  6. The conducting sphere will develop a net electric charge of +Q.
  7. The conducting sphere will remain neutral, regardless of the nonconducting sphere's charge.
  8. The conducting sphere will develop a net electric charge of –Q.
  9. An electric field will be induced within the nonconducting sphere.
  10. The spheres will experience an electrostatic repulsion.
