Sphere 1 with radius R_1 has positive charge q, Sphere 2 with radius 4.50 R_1 is far from sphere 1 and initially uncharged. The
separated spheres are then connected with a wire then uncouth to retain only negligible charge. (a) What is the ratio V_1/V_2 of the final potentials of the spheres? (b) what fraction of q ends up on sphere? (c) What fraction of q ends up on sphere 2? (d) What is the ratio q_1/q_2 of the surface charge densities of the spheres?
Thermal energy typically flows from a warmer material to a cooler material. Generally, when thermal energy is transferred to a material, the motion of its particles speeds up and its temperature increases. There are three methods of thermal energy transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation.
