The two charged metal spheres XX and YY shown above are far apart, and each is isolated from all other charges. The radius of sphere XX is greater than that of sphere YY, and the magnitudes of the electric fields just outside their surfaces are the same. How does the charge on sphere XX compare with that on sphere YY ? (A) It is greater. (B) It is less. (C) It is the same. (D It cannot be determined without knowing the actual value of the electric field just outside the spheres.
