When the wedges are removed, predict which way the carts will move. Justify your prediction.

I believe the carts will move towards each other, as positive and negative charges attract each other.

Explanation:

It is like a magnet when you put the opposite sides together. (North and South, South and North) or the plus goes to the minus and the minus goes to the plus.

If you take out the far left and right wedges, it may move a little away for a few seconds, but will move back together .

Another hypothesis is that if the sheets are flimsy, the sheets will attract each other, however, the sheets will join together at the top, but the carts will still stay at the same place.
