Two spheres having the same radius and mass are suspended by two strings of equal length from the same point in such a way that their surfaces touch each other. On depositing a charge of $2 \times 10^{-6} \ C$ on them,they repel each other such that in equilibrium,the angle between their strings becomes $60^{\circ}$. If the distance from the point of suspension to the center of the sphere is $10 \ cm$,find the mass of each sphere. $(k = 9 \times 10^9 \ SI, g = 10 \ ms^{-2})$. (in $kg$)

$A$ small uncharged conducting sphere is placed in contact with an identical sphere having a charge of $4 \times 10^{-8} \text{ C}$. They are then separated to a distance such that the force of repulsion between them is $9 \times 10^{-3} \text{ N}$. The distance between them is (Take $\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \text{ N m}^2 \text{ C}^{-2}$ in $SI$ units). (in $\text{ cm}$)

Three charges are placed as shown in the figure. The magnitude of $q_1$ is $2.00\, \mu C$,but its sign and the value of the charge $q_2$ are not known. Charge $q_3$ is $+4.00\, \mu C$,and the net force on $q_3$ is entirely in the negative $x-$ direction. The magnitude of $q_2$ is
