Two charges each equal to $2\,\mu C$ are $0.5\,m$ apart. If both of them exist inside vacuum,then the force between them is.......$N$

Two identical conducting spheres carrying different charges attract each other with a force $F$ when placed in air at a distance $d$ apart. The spheres are brought into contact and then returned to their original positions. Now,the two spheres repel each other with a force whose magnitude is equal to the initial attractive force. The ratio between the initial charges on the spheres is:

$A$ charge of $1 \mu C$ is divided into two parts such that their charges are in the ratio of $2: 3$. These two charges are kept at a distance of $1 \ m$ apart in vacuum. Then,the electric force between them (in $N$) is
