When they are immersed in a liquid of density $0.8 \, g \cdot cm^{-3}$,the angle remains the same. If the density of the material of the spheres is $1.6 \, g \cdot cm^{-3}$,find the dielectric constant of the liquid.

For the regular pentagon system shown in the figure,find the net electrostatic force on the charge $q_0$ placed at the center.

Two identical non-conducting solid spheres of same mass and charge are suspended in air from a common point by two non-conducting,massless strings of same length. At equilibrium,the angle between the strings is $\alpha$. The spheres are now immersed in a dielectric liquid of density $\rho_l = 800 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ and dielectric constant $K = 21$. If the angle between the strings remains the same after the immersion,then
$(A)$ electric force between the spheres remains unchanged
$(B)$ electric force between the spheres reduces
$(C)$ mass density of the spheres is $840 \ kg \ m^{-3}$
$(D)$ the tension in the strings holding the spheres remains unchanged

Two spheres having the same radius and mass are suspended by two strings of equal length from the same point in such a way that their surfaces touch each other. On depositing a charge of $2 \times 10^{-6} \ C$ on them,they repel each other such that in equilibrium,the angle between their strings becomes $60^{\circ}$. If the distance from the point of suspension to the center of the sphere is $10 \ cm$,find the mass of each sphere. $(k = 9 \times 10^9 \ SI, g = 10 \ ms^{-2})$. (in $kg$)
