quadruples

Two uncharged metal spheres, #1 and #2, are mounted on insulating support rods. A third metal sphere, carrying a positive charge is then placed near 2. Now a copper wire is momentarily connected between 1 and 2 and then removed. Finally, sphere 3 is removed. In the final state what are the charges of sphere 1 and 2

sphere 1 carries a positive charge and 2 carries a negative charge

False

True or False. A conductor differs from an insulator in that a conductor has faster moving molecules

False

Series

A battery's "voltage" is

The amount of energy it gives to each coulomb of electrical charge

Regarding the charges of the electron proton and neutron

The proton has a positive charge, the electron has a negative charge whose strength is EQUAL to the strength of the proton's charge, and the neutron has no charge.

A charged rod carrying a negative charge is brought near two spheres that are in contact with each other but insulated from the ground. If the two spheres are then separated, what kind of charge will be on the spheres?

The sphere near the charged rod becomes positive and the other becomes negative

Object A has an electric charge that is 10 times greater than the charge on Object B. When placed near each other, how does the force by A on B compare with the force by B on A?

They are equal

True or False regarding Resistance. The resistance of a wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire.
