Two equal charges are separated by a distance $d$. $A$ third charge placed on a perpendicular bisector at $x$ distance will experience maximum Coulomb force when

Three equal charges are placed on the three corners of a square. If the force between $q_1$ and $q_2$ is $F_{12}$ and that between $q_1$ and $q_3$ is $F_{13}$,the ratio of magnitudes $\frac{F_{12}}{F_{13}}$ is

Positive point charges are placed at the vertices of a star shape as shown in the figure. The direction of the electrostatic force on a negative point charge at the centre $O$ of the star is

$ABC$ is a right-angled triangle in which $AB = 3 \ cm$,$BC = 4 \ cm$ and the right angle is at $B$. Three charges $+15 \ \mu C$,$+12 \ \mu C$ and $-20 \ \mu C$ are placed respectively at $A$,$B$ and $C$. The force acting on the charge at $B$ is (in $N$)

$A$ proton of mass $m$ and charge $e$ is projected from a very large distance towards an $\alpha$-particle with velocity $v$. Initially,the $\alpha$-particle is at rest,but it is free to move. If gravity is neglected,then the minimum separation along the straight line of their motion will be:

Coulomb's law for electrostatic force between two point charges and Newton's law for gravitational force between two stationary point masses,both have inverse-square dependence on the distance between the charges and masses respectively.
$(a)$ Compare the strength of these forces by determining the ratio of their magnitudes $(i)$ for an electron and a proton and $(ii)$ for two protons.
$(b)$ Estimate the accelerations of electron and proton due to the electrical force of their mutual attraction when they are $1 \mathring A \left( = 10^{-10} \, m \right)$ apart? $\left( m_{p} = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \, kg, m_{e} = 9.11 \times 10^{-31} \, kg \right)$
