Two identical spheres,each carrying a charge $Q = 10 \ \mu C$,are suspended from a single rigid support by strings of length $L = 1 \ m$. In the equilibrium position,if the angle between the two strings is $60^\circ$,what is the tension $T$ in the strings (in $N$)? (Given: $\frac{1}{4\pi \varepsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \ N \cdot m^2/C^2$)

  • A
    $18$
  • B
    $1.8$
  • C
    $0.18$
  • D
    $0.018$
