An infinitely long thin wire,having a uniform charge density per unit length of $5 \text{ nC/m}$,is passing through a spherical shell of radius $1 \text{ m}$,as shown in the figure. $A$ $10 \text{ nC}$ charge is distributed uniformly over the spherical shell. If the configuration of the charges remains static,the magnitude of the potential difference between points $P$ and $R$,in Volt,is. . . .
[Given: In $SI$ units $\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0}=9 \times 10^9, \ln 2=0.7$. Ignore the area pierced by the wire.]

Four charges $2C, -3C, -4C$ and $5C$ are placed at the corners of a square. Which of the following statements is true for the point of intersection of the diagonals?

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:
