Three charges $q, Q$ and $+4q$ are placed in a straight line of length $d$ at positions $0, d/3$ and $2d/3$ respectively. In order to make the net force on $q$ be zero, the value of $Q$ should be

Two similar spheres having $+q$ and $-q$ charge are kept at a certain distance $r$. $A$ force $F$ acts between them. If another similar sphere having $+q$ charge is kept in the middle of the two spheres, then it experiences a force in magnitude and direction as:

Explain the superposition principle for static electric forces and write its general equation.

The force between two point charges $A$ and $B$ is $F$. If $75\%$ of the charge of $A$ is transferred to $B$,then the new force between $A$ and $B$ is:

Two point charges placed at a distance $r$ in air experience a certain force. Then the distance at which they will experience the same force in a medium of dielectric constant $K$ is

Coulomb's law for electrostatic force between two point charges and Newton's law for gravitational force between two stationary point masses,both have inverse-square dependence on the distance between the charges and masses respectively.
$(a)$ Compare the strength of these forces by determining the ratio of their magnitudes $(i)$ for an electron and a proton and $(ii)$ for two protons.
$(b)$ Estimate the accelerations of electron and proton due to the electrical force of their mutual attraction when they are $1 \mathring A \left( = 10^{-10} \, m \right)$ apart? $\left( m_{p} = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \, kg, m_{e} = 9.11 \times 10^{-31} \, kg \right)$
