Two Charged Spheres
John Lekner
Open publisher page 0 citations
Abstract
The capacitance coefficients of two spheres are calculated and limiting forms at large and small separations discussed. The (equal and opposite) forces acting between the spheres are calculated, as are the charge distributions on the spheres. The cases where the spheres are held at different potentials are discussed, including the force acting between them. Appendices cover regions of attraction and repulsion between like-charged conducting spheres and charged intersecting spheres.
