Two identical balls having like charges $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ are placed at a certain distance $r$ apart and repel each other with a force $F_1$. They are brought into contact and then moved apart to a distance equal to half their initial separation $(r/2)$. The force of repulsion between them increases $4.5$ times in comparison with the initial value. The ratio of the initial charges of the balls is

The repulsive force between two point charges is $F$ when they are separated by a distance of $1 \, m$. Now,these point charges are replaced by spheres of radius $25 \, cm$ having the same charges. The distance between their centers is $1 \, m$. The repulsive force in the two cases will decrease according to:

Which of the following physical quantities have the same dimensions?

Four point charges,each of $+q$,are rigidly fixed at the four corners of a square planar soap film of side $a$. The surface tension of the soap film is $\gamma$. The system of charges and the planar film are in equilibrium,and $a = k \left[ \frac{q^2}{\gamma} \right]^{1/N}$,where $k$ is a constant. Then $N$ is:

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 $m$?
