Electrically inert metal ball A is connected to the ground by a wire. What happens to the charge of this ball if you bring a negatively charged ball B near it. Justify your answer.

An electron and a proton are held on an x axis, with the electron at x = + 1.000 m and the proton at x = - 1.000 m. part a how much work is required to bring an additional electron from infinity to the origin? express your answer with the appropriate units. part b if, instead of the second electron coming in from infinity, it is initially at x = + 20.00 m on the axis and is given an initial velocity of 100.0 m/s toward the origin, does it reach the origin? part c how close to the origin does it come?
