Two spherical conductors are separated by a distance much larger than either of their radii. Sphere A has a radius of
26.5 cm and a net charge of –68.3 nC, whereas sphere B, which is initially neutral, has a radius of 89.4 cm. The two
spheres are then connected by a thin metal wire. What is the charge on sphere B after equilibrium has been reached?
