The law governing the force between electric charges is known as

Two unit negative charges are placed on a straight line. $A$ positive charge $q$ is placed exactly at the midpoint between these unit charges. If the system of these three charges is in equilibrium,the value of $q$ (in $C$) is

Two pith balls carrying equal charges are suspended from a common point by strings of equal length. The equilibrium separation between them is $r$. Now,the strings are rigidly clamped at half the height. The equilibrium separation between the balls now becomes:

Three equal charges $+q$ are placed at the three vertices of an equilateral triangle centered at the origin. They are held in equilibrium by a restoring force of magnitude $F(r) = k r$ directed towards the origin,where $k$ is a constant. What is the distance of the three charges from the origin?

The distance between charges $5 \times 10^{-11} \, C$ and $-2.7 \times 10^{-11} \, C$ is $0.2 \, m$. The distance at which a third charge should be placed in order that it will not experience any force along the line joining the two charges is . . . . . . $m$.
