The two conductive spheres, the smaller and the larger, have R and 2R rays. Their measures are distant fromeach other to the distance d1 = 12R. The smaller ball was charged with 2q charges and the larger 7q charges were measured,that they repel with the force F1 = 140 N. Calculate the repulsion force F2, if the balls zewe touch each other and then spread it to the distance d2 = 2d1?Tip: the moment the balls touched, the load arrived and the balance was established whenthe electrical potential on the surface of both spheres was the same.
