Two small spherical balls each carrying a charge $Q = 10\,\mu C$ ($10$ micro-coulomb) are suspended by two insulating threads of equal lengths $1\,m$ each, from a point fixed in the ceiling. It is found that in equilibrium threads are separated by an angle ${60^o}$ between them, as shown in the figure. What is the tension in the threads......$N$ (Given: $\frac{1}{{(4\pi {\varepsilon _0})}} = 9 \times {10^9}\,Nm/{C^2}$)

Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of lengths $l,$ are initially at a distance $d\;(d < < l)$ apart because of their mutual repulsion. The charges begin to leak from both the spheres at a constant rate. As a result, the spheres approach each other with a velocity $v.$ Then $v$ varies as a function of the distance $x$ between the spheres, as
