Question

If one body is having a charge +5C and other identical size body is having -13C, both of them get

touched then what is value of charge on each body after touching?​

Answer 1

Answer:

5-13/2 = -4 .. as they are identical .....if they are not identical then equate their potential i.e. kq/r

Answer 2

Answer:

charge on each body = -4 C

Explanation:

on touching, effective charge becomes  - 8 C

this charge gets distributed  equally....

hence charge on each body = - 4 C
