An empty metal paint can is placed on a marble table, the lid is removed and both parts are
discharged (honorably) by touching them to the ground. An insulating nylon thread is glued is
the center if the lid, and a penny, a nickel, and a dime glued to the thread do that they are not
touching each other. The penny is given a charge +5nc, and a nickel and a dime are discharged.

secured. The outside can is again touched momentarily to ground. The device is carefully
disassembled with insulating gloves and tools. (a) What charges are found on each other of the,
