$5$ charges each of magnitude $10^{-5} \,C$ and mass $1 \,kg$ are placed (fixed) symmetrically about a movable central charge of magnitude $5 \times 10^{-5} \,C$ and mass $0.5 \,kg$ as shown in the figure. The charge at $P_1$ is removed. The acceleration of the central charge is [Given,$O P_1=O P_2=O P_3=O P_4=O P_5=1 \,m, \frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0}=9 \times 10^9 \,N \cdot m^2/C^2$]

Two spheres carrying charges $+6 \mu C$ and $+9 \mu C$ are separated by a distance $d$ and experience a force of repulsion $F$. When a charge of $-3 \mu C$ is added to both spheres and they are kept at the same distance as before,the new force of repulsion is:

$A$ charge $Q$ is divided into two parts $q$ and $Q - q$. If the Coulomb repulsion between them when they are separated by a distance $r$ is to be maximum,the ratio of $\frac{Q}{q}$ should be:
