The force between two conducting spheres of same radius having charges $+8 \mu C$ and $-4 \mu C$ separated by some distance in air is $F$. If the spheres are connected by a conducting wire and after some time the wire is removed,then the magnitude of the force between the two conducting spheres is

  • A
    $F$
  • B
    $F/2$
  • C
    $F/8$
  • D
    $F/4$

$A$ tiny spherical oil drop carrying a net charge $q$ is balanced in still air with a vertical uniform electric field of strength $\frac{81 \pi}{7} \times 10^5 \text{ Vm}^{-1}$. When the field is switched off,the drop is observed to fall with a terminal velocity $2 \times 10^{-3} \text{ ms}^{-1}$. Given $g = 9.8 \text{ ms}^{-2}$,viscosity of the air $\eta = 1.8 \times 10^{-5} \text{ Ns m}^{-2}$,and the density of oil $\rho = 900 \text{ kg m}^{-3}$,the magnitude of $q$ is:

Two fixed charges $+4\,Q$ and $-Q$ are located at $A$ and $B$ respectively,with the distance $AB = 3\,m$.
