    The document discusses electrostatics concepts involving charged objects: 1) When glass eyeglass lenses are rubbed with nylon, the lenses gain a positive charge and the nylon gains a negative charge. 2) The document asks questions about determining if glass lenses gained or lost electrons, the number of electrons transferred, and the changes in mass when the lenses were charged. 3) It examines the final charges on two metal spheres, A and B, when sphere A with a +12.0C charge contacts neutral sphere B and they are then separated, depending on whether their radii are equal or if sphere B's radius is twice sphere A's. 4) Spheres A, B, and C

    ELECTROSTATICS ACTIVITY

    1. The lenses of the eyeglasses are being cleaned using a nylon cloth. In doing so, which
    becomes positively charged? Negatively charged? Assume that the lenses are made of
    glass.
    2. When the lenses of the eyeglasses are rubbed with a nylon cloth, the lenses acquire a
    charge of magnitude 4.75 nC. (a) Did the lenses of the eyeglasses gain or lose electrons?
    (b) How many electrons were transferred during the process? (c) What is the change in
    the mass of the glass rod? (d) What is the change in the mass of the silk cloth?
    3. Metal sphere A has a charge of +12.0 C. It is brought in contact with a neutral metal
    sphere B and then separated. Find the final charges on spheres A and B if (a) the spheres
    have equal radius and (b) if the radius of sphere B is twice the radius of sphere B.
    4. Spheres A, B, and C have charges +8.0 C, +12.0 C, and -5.0 C, respectively. The three
    spheres are allowed to touch each other simultaneously and then separated. (a) What is
    the total charge on the three spheres before and after touching each other? (b) What is the
    final charge on each sphere assuming they are identical? (c) What is the final charge on
    each sphere assuming that rA = rB = 2rC?
