$A$ 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:

An infinite number of charges,each of charge $1 \,\mu C$,are placed on the $x$-axis at coordinates $x = 1, 2, 4, 8, ... \infty$. If a charge of $1 \, C$ is kept at the origin,what is the net force acting on the $1 \, C$ charge in Newtons?

Two electric charges $4q$ and $q$ are placed at a distance $l$ apart. $A$ third charge $Q$ is placed between them at the midpoint. If the resultant force on charge $q$ is zero,then the value of $Q$ is:

Two charges placed in air repel each other with a force of $10^{-4} \ N$. When oil is introduced between the charges, the force becomes $2.5 \times 10^{-5} \ N$. The dielectric constant of the oil is:

Two point charges $+9e$ and $+e$ are at $16\, cm$ away from each other. Where should another charge $q$ be placed between them so that the system remains in equilibrium?

Two small conducting spheres of equal radius have charges $+10\,\mu C$ and $-20\,\mu C$ respectively and are placed at a distance $R$ from each other,experiencing a force $F_1$. If they are brought into contact and then separated to the same distance $R$,they experience a force $F_2$. The ratio of $F_1$ to $F_2$ is:
