Explanation / Answer

Given,
r1 = 0.43 m
r2 = 0.35 m
Q = 2.1 C

Now when the two spheres are connected, then the electrostatic equilibrium will be reached.

(a)
Charge on Sphere two

=>Q2 = (Q*r2)/(r1 + r2)
Q2 = (2.1 * 0.35)/(0.43 + 0.35) C
Q2 = 0.942 C
Hence Charge on Sphere 2,

Q2 = 0.94 C

= 9.4*10^-7 C
