Q.
A charged particle $q$ is shot towards another charged particle $Q$ (which is fixed) with a speed $v$ . It approaches $Q$ up to the closest distance $r$ and then returns. If $q$ were given a speed $2v$ , the closest distance of approach would be

Solution:
From conservation of mechanical energy
$\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=\frac{k q Q}{r}$
In second case
$\frac{1}{2}m\left(\right.2v \left(\left.\right)^{2}=\frac{k q Q}{r^{′}}$
$r^{′}=\frac{r}{4}$

5. The force of repulsion between two point charges is $F$ , when these are at distance $0.5 \, m$ apart. Now the point charges are replaced by non conducting spheres of radii $5 \, cm$ each having the same charge as that of the respective point charges. The distance between their centres is again kept $0.5m.$ Then the force of repulsion will
