To find the separation \( L \) between the two identical charged particles in limited equilibrium, we need to balance the electrostatic force of repulsion with the frictional force that resists their motion. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Forces:** - Electrostatic force of repulsion between the two charges: \( F_e \) - Frictional force resisting the motion: \( F_f \) ...
