Friction... Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force
Means it will keep going until acted on by an outside force, in this case friction

Plan: Use Q = m · c · ΔT three times. Hot casting cools ΔT_hot = 500°C -
Tf. Cold water and steel tank heat ΔT_cold = Tf - 25°C. Set Q from hot
casting cooling = Q from cold tank heating.
here
m_cast · c_steel · ΔT_hot = (m_tank · c_steel + m_water · c_water) · ΔT_cold
m_cast · c_steel · (500°C - Tf) = (m_tank · c_steel + m_water · c_water) · (Tf - 25°C)
2.5 kg · 0.50 kJ/(kg K°) · (500°C - Tf) = (5 kg· 0.50 kJ/(kg K°) + 40 kg· 4.18 kJ/(kg K°)) · (Tf - 25°C)
Solve for Tf, remember that K° = C° (i.e. for ΔT's) </span>
Answer:
The charge in each ball will be 3 * 10^-12 C
Explanation:
(Assuming the correct charge of the second ball is 8 * 10^-12)
When the balls are brought in contact, all the charges are split evenly among then.
So first we need to find the total charge combined:
(-3 * 10^-12) + (8 * 10^-12) + (4 * 10^-12) = 9 * 10^-12 C
Then, when the balls are separated, each ball will have one third of the total charge, so in the end they will have the same charge:
(9 * 10^-12) / 3 = 3 * 10^-12 C
So the charge in each ball will be 3 * 10^-12 C
