$A$ metallic sphere $A$ isolated from the ground is charged to $+50 \mu C$. This sphere is brought into contact with another isolated metallic sphere $B$ of half the radius of sphere $A$. Then the charge on the two isolated spheres $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio:

  • A
    $1: 2$
  • B
    $2: 1$
  • C
    $4: 1$
  • D
    $1: 1$
