JEE Main 2011 — Electrostatics Question with Solution
From: AIEEE 2011
Question
Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of length are initially a distance apart because of their mutual repulsion. The charge begins to leak from both the spheres at a constant rate. As a result charges approach each other with a velocity . Then as a function of distance between them,
