Two identical conducting spheres are charged to +2 Q and -Q . respectively, and are separated by a distance d (much greater than the radii of the spheres) as shown above. The magnitude of the force of attraction on the left sphere is F1F_{1}. After the two spheres are made to touch and then are re-separated by distance dd, the magnitude of the force on the left sphere is F2\mathrm{F}_{2}. Which of the following relationships is correct? (A) 2 F1=F22 \mathrm{~F}_{1}=\mathrm{F}_{2} (B) F1=F2\mathrm{F}_{1}=\mathrm{F}_{2} (C) F1=2 F2\mathrm{F}_{1}=2 \mathrm{~F}_{2} (D) F1=8 F2\mathrm{F}_{1}=8 \mathrm{~F}_{2}
