In the given figure,two tiny conducting balls of identical mass $m$ and identical charge $q$ hang from non-conducting threads of equal length $L$. Assume that $\theta$ is so small that $\tan \theta \approx \sin \theta$,then for equilibrium,$x$ is equal to:

  • A
    ${\left( {\frac{{{q^2}L}}{{2\pi {\varepsilon _0}mg}}} \right)^{\frac{1}{3}}}$
  • B
    ${\left( {\frac{{q{L^2}}}{{2\pi {\varepsilon _0}mg}}} \right)^{\frac{1}{3}}}$
  • C
    ${\left( {\frac{{{q^2}{L^2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}mg}}} \right)^{\frac{1}{3}}}$
  • D
    ${\left( {\frac{{{q^2}L}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}mg}}} \right)^{\frac{1}{3}}}$

Two identical charged spheres are suspended by strings of equal lengths. The strings make an angle of $30^o$ with each other. When suspended in a liquid of density $1 \, g \, cm^{-3}$,the angle remains the same. If the density of the material of the sphere is $4/3 \, g \, cm^{-3}$,the dielectric constant of the liquid is:

$A$ particle of mass $2\,g$ and charge $1\,\mu C$ is released from a distance of $1\,m$ from a fixed charge of $1\,mC$. What will be the velocity of the particle at a distance of $10\,m$ from the fixed charge (in $m/s$)?

Two identical positive charges are fixed on the $y$-axis, at equal distances from the origin $O$. $A$ particle with a negative charge starts on the $x$-axis at a large distance from $O$, moves along the $+x$-axis, passes through $O$, and moves far away from $O$. Its acceleration $a$ is taken as positive in the positive $x$-direction. The particle's acceleration $a$ is plotted against its $x$-coordinate. Which of the following best represents the plot?
