Question:

A common demonstration involves charging a rubber balloon, which is an insulator, by rubbing it on your hair, and touching the balloon to a ceiling or wall, which is also an insulator. The electrical attraction between the charged balloon and the neutral wall results in the balloon sticking to the wall. Imagine now that we have two infinitely large flat sheets of insulating material. One is charged and the other is neutral. If these are brought into contact, will an attractive force exist between them, as there was for the balloon and the wall?
