Two identical conducting spheres, having charges of opposite sign, attract each other with a force of $0.108$ $N$ when separated by $0.5$ $m$. The spheres are connected by a conducting wire, which is then removed, and thereafter, they repel each other with a force of $ 0.036$ $N$. The initial charges on the spheres are
