we know that there occurs distribution of charge when a neutral sphere is brought in contact with a charged sphere

but this hold true when the charged sphere is an electron

izzac

for that I think classical physics has no answer........may be if we consider quarks and leptons,we can get an answer

feynmann

Hey ,u are mixing up a macroscopic theory with a microscopic phenomenon.

The qn can't be answered on the basis of electrostatics.

But I think that the answer is NO

phyana

i dont think u have found this question in any buks.........

it might be formulated by u..................

i totally agree wit feyman...........

i think i can explan it in another way.............

if u bring an uncharged sphere near an electron nothing happens.
no charge distribution occurs.
this is becaz we have prooved tht charged pocessed by an electron is the fundamental charge.its the smallest chrge ever possible.
only integral multiples of this charge can be seen anywhere.
even though [(1/3)charge of an electron] is theoreticallly explained by physicst we dont bring them in calculations.......

hope u got the point...................

if useful rate me.............
