Important Questions on Simple Harmonic Motion

HARD
Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of lengths l, are initially at a distance d( dl ) 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 υ. Then υ varies as a function of the distance x between the spheres, as

Two identical conducting spheres A and B carry an equal charges. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters, and the force between them is F. A third identical conducting sphere, C, is uncharged. Sphere C is first touched to A, then to B, and then removed. As a result, the force between A and B would be equal to:
