Two neutral conducting spheres, A and B, are supported by insulating stands. The spheres are initially touching each other. A particle with a positive charge +Q is brought near the sphere A as shown. First, explain what is happening microscopically inside the conducting spheres (if anything at all) when the charge is brought near. Draw a diagram to illustrate this. Is there a net force on the particle with the +Q charge at this time? Explain your reasoning. Without touching the metal spheres, the person holding the base of sphere B now pulls it 4 cm to the right. Is there a net force on sphere A? Explain your reasoning. When sphere B is moved, does the net force on the particle +Q increase, decrease, or remain the same? Explain your reasoning. After sphere B is moved, is there a net force on it by sphere A? Explain your reasoning.

In the figure below, a charged particle moves perpendicular to a uniform B-field (in a vacuum) and the magnetic field is the dominant factor determining the motion. The particle's kinetic energy and speed remain constant, and the direction of motion and speed are unaffected. Because the magnetic force is perpendicular to the direction of travel, the charged particle follows a curved path in the magnetic field. And the particle continues to follow this curved path until it forms a complete circle. The magnetic force is perpendicular to the velocity, where the velocity changes in direction and magnitude. The magnetic force is perpendicular to the velocity and velocity changes in direction not magnitude. In this situation, where a charged particle moves perpendicular to a uniform B-field (in a vacuum), the magnetic force supplies the centripetal force Fc = mv2 r. The magnetic force is always perpendicular to velocity, and it does no work on the charged particle. A negatively charged particle moves in the plane of the paper in a region where the magnetic field is perpendicular out of the paper.
