Three particles, each of mass m and carrying a charge q each, are suspended from a common point by insulating mass-less strings each of length L. If the particles are in equilibrium and are located at the corners of an equilateral triangle of side a, calculate the charge q on each particle. Assume Lgtgta .

Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of lengths I, are initially at a distance d(d ltlt l) apart because of their mutual repulsion. The charges begin to leak from both the spheres at a constant rate. As a result, the spheres approach each other with a velocity v. Then v varies as a function of the distance x between as:

Two metallic balls of mass m are suspended by two strings of length L . The distance between upper ends is l . The angle at which the string will be inclined with vertical due to attraction is (m lt lt M where M is the mass of Earth)

Two spheres carrying charge q are hanging from a same point of suspension with the help of threads of length 1 m, in a space free from gravity. The distance between them will be........

Charges on identical spheres A and B are equal. When the separation between them is 1 m, the repulsion between them is 80 N. Now, another identical and uncharged sphere C is brought in contact with A and then separated. Then, C is brought in contact with B and then separated. What will be the new force between A and B ?

When two spheres having 4Q and - 2Q charge are placed at a certain distance, the force acting between them is F. Now they are connected by a conducing wire and again separated from each other. Now they are kept at a distance half of the previous one. The force acting between them is.......

An eye can distinguish between two points of an object if they are separated by more than 0.22 mm when the object is placed at 25 cm from the eye. The object is now seen by a compound microscope having a 20 D objective and 10 D eyepiece separated by a distance of 20 cm. The final image is formed at 25 cm from the eye. What is the minimum separation between two points of the object which can now be distinguished?

Two poles of equal heights are standing opposite each other on either side of the road, which is 80m wide. From a point between them on the road, the angles of elevation of the top of the poles are 60^(@) and 30^(@) , respectively. Find the height of the poles and the distances of the point from the poles.
