Two point charges $+Q$ and $+q$ repel each other with a force of $100 \,N$. Keeping the distance between them unchanged, if $Q$ is increased by $10 \%$ and $q$ is decreased by $10 \%$, the force of repulsion between them will:

  • A
    decrease by $10 \,N$
  • B
    decrease by $1 \,N$
  • C
    increase by $10 \,N$
  • D
    remain same

$A$ small uncharged conducting sphere is placed in contact with an identical sphere having a charge of $4 \times 10^{-8} \text{ C}$. They are then separated to a distance such that the force of repulsion between them is $9 \times 10^{-3} \text{ N}$. The distance between them is (Take $\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \text{ N m}^2 \text{ C}^{-2}$ in $SI$ units). (in $\text{ cm}$)
