Three identical charged balls,each of charge $2 \, C$,are suspended from a common point $P$ by silk threads of $2 \, m$ each (as shown in the figure). They form an equilateral triangle of side $1 \, m$. The ratio of the net electrostatic force on one charged ball to the force between any two charged balls is ...........

Two identical non-conducting solid spheres of same mass and charge are suspended in air from a common point by two non-conducting,massless strings of same length. At equilibrium,the angle between the strings is $\alpha$. The spheres are now immersed in a dielectric liquid of density $\rho_l = 800 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ and dielectric constant $K = 21$. If the angle between the strings remains the same after the immersion,then
$(A)$ electric force between the spheres remains unchanged
$(B)$ electric force between the spheres reduces
$(C)$ mass density of the spheres is $840 \ kg \ m^{-3}$
$(D)$ the tension in the strings holding the spheres remains unchanged

Two identical charged spheres separated by a distance $r$ repel each other with a force $F$. If $10 \%$ of electrons are transferred from one sphere to the other,then the force between them becomes

Three equal charges $+q$ are placed at the three vertices of an equilateral triangle centered at the origin. They are held in equilibrium by a restoring force of magnitude $F(r) = k r$ directed towards the origin,where $k$ is a constant. What is the distance of the three charges from the origin?
