To find the time period of revolution \( T \) of the charge \( -q_1 \) moving in a circular path around the fixed charge \( +q_2 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the forces acting on the charge The charge \( -q_1 \) experiences a centripetal force due to the electrostatic attraction towards the fixed charge \( +q_2 \). According to Coulomb's law, the electrostatic force \( F \) between the two charges is given by: \[ F = \frac{k |q_1| |q_2|}{r^2} \] ...
