Five balls numbered $1$ to $5$ are suspended using separate threads. Pairs $(1, 2), (2, 4)$ and $(4, 1)$ show electrostatic attraction,while pairs $(2, 3)$ and $(4, 5)$ show repulsion. Ball $1$ must be:

  • A
    Positively charged
  • B
    Negatively charged
  • C
    Neutral
  • D
    None of these

Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of lengths $l$ are initially at a distance $d$ $(d << l)$ apart because of their mutual repulsion. The charges begin to leak from both the spheres at a constant rate. As a result,the spheres approach each other with a velocity $v$. Then $v$ varies as a function of the distance $x$ between the spheres,as:

At a certain distance from a point charge,the electric field intensity is $500 \ V/m$ and the electric potential is $3000 \ V$. What is this distance in $m$?

When two spheres having $4 Q$ and $-2 Q$ charge are placed at a certain distance,the force acting between them is $F$. Now they are connected by a conducting wire and again separated from each other. Now they are kept at a distance half of the previous one. The force acting between them is . . . . . . .
