11. Two identical conducting spheres, "1" and "2", carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters. A third identical conducting sphere, "3", is uncharged. Sphere "3" is first touched to "1", then to "2", and finally removed. As a result, the electrostatic force between "1" and "2", which was originally F, becomes: (A) F/2 (B) F/4 (C) F/18 (D) 3F/8 (E) 0.
