Thank you very much... it worked like a charm.

Hello, I've been trying and trying to do this problem for quite a while now, and I can't seem to get an answer which agrees with the book. I figured that one metal sphere would then end up with a charge of 10^13 electrons (so I multiplied that by 1.60x10^-19 to get the charge of all the...
