Two point charges $3 \times 10^{-6} \, C$ and $8 \times 10^{-6} \, C$ repel each other by a force of $6 \times 10^{-3} \, N$. If each of them is given an additional charge $-6 \times 10^{-6} \, C$,the force between them will be

  • A
    $2.4 \times 10^{-3} \, N$ (attractive)
  • B
    $2.4 \times 10^{-9} \, N$ (attractive)
  • C
    $1.5 \times 10^{-3} \, N$ (repulsive)
  • D
    $1.5 \times 10^{-3} \, N$ (attractive)

Two small balls,each having mass $m$ and charge $q$,are suspended from a common point by insulating strings of length $L$ as shown in the figure. Assuming $\theta$ is very small such that $\tan \theta \approx \sin \theta$,find the value of $x$ at equilibrium.

Two small spheres,each having an equal positive charge $Q$ (Coulomb),are suspended by two insulating strings of equal length $L$ (metre) from a rigid hook. The whole setup is taken into a satellite where there is no gravity. The two balls are now held by electrostatic forces in a horizontal position. The tension in each string is then:

$A$ point charge $q_1$ exerts a force $F$ upon another point charge $q_2$. If a third charge $q_3$ is placed near the charge $q_2$, then the force that charge $q_1$ exerts on the charge $q_2$ will be

Charges $3Q$,$q$,and $Q$ are placed along the $x$-axis at positions $x=0$,$x=l/3$,and $x=l$ respectively. When the net force on charge $Q$ is zero,the value of $q$ is:
