X and Y are two uncharged metal spheres on insulating stands, and are in contact with each other. A positively charged rod R is brought close to X as shown in Figure (a).
Sphere Y is now moved away from X, as in Figure (b).
What are the final charge states of X and Y?
A) Both X and Y are neutral.
B) X is positive and Y is neutral.
C) X is neutral and Y is positive.
D) X is negative and Y is positive.
E) Both X and Y are negative.
Answer: D

Answer: Because they attract each other, they should have opposite charges.
After they touch there are different cases may occur.
1) If + and – equal then they will be neutral so afterward there will be no interaction between the spheres.
2) If + or – are not the same amount then some less amount of change will be neutralized then the rest will be distributed between the spheres. Eventually they will have the same type of charges + or ‐. After this happen, they will start to repel each other, they will not cling. OUT OF BOOK QUESTION

A point charge is placed at each corner of a square with side length a. The charges all have the same magnitude q. Two of the charges are positive and two are negative, as shown in the figure. A fifth charge +q is placed at the center of the square. What is the direction and magnitude of the net electrostatic force on the fifth charge due to charges at the corners of the square? Note: Your answer for magnitude will be in terms of q, a, and some constants . For direction you may define x and y coordinates that you may define or use right/left/up/down words along with any angle if necessary.
