How does A student puts a negatively charged object against a metal cabinet. Describe what happens to the charge on the object when it touches the metal cabinet?
Well the metal would obviously attract a charged particle for its charge less surface. The only possible way would be placing a positively charged object on the other side of the negative charged object such that it could counter effect the coulombian pull on the negative charge due to the metal. To keep the positive charge in place it would need to place it within oppositely charged electronic plates. This needs more amendments but thats another topic. When a charged object touches metal, the end result is usually what is known as a static shock.

But those forces act on DIFFERENT objects! The forces on object A, and on object B, may be unbalanced!Because NOT all forces are equal and opposite.
