Two small aluminum spheres, each of mass 0.250 kilograms, are separated by 80.0 centimeters. How many electrons would have to be removed from one sphere and added to the other to cause an attractive force between the spheres of magnitude (roughly one ton)? Assume that the spheres may be treated as point charges. already know that there are electrons in each sphere.
