Important Questions on Conduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to provide evidence that fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact.

EASY
Suppose the charge of a proton and an electron differ slightly. One of them is e, the other is e+Δe. If the net electrostatic force and gravitational force between two hydrogen atoms placed at a distance d (much greater than atomic size) apart is zero, then Δe is of the order of [Given mass of hydrogen mh= 1.67×1027 kg]
HARD
Two identical non-conducting solid spheres of same mass and charge are suspended in air from a common point by two non-conducting, massless strings of same length. At equilibrium, the angle between the strings is α. The spheres are now immersed in a dielectric liquid of density 800 kg m-3 and dielectric constant 21. If the angle between the strings remains the same after the immersion, then

Four identical pendulums are made by attaching a small ball of mass 100 g on a 20 cm long thread and suspended from the same point. Now each ball is given charge q so that balls move away from each other with each thread making an angle of 45o from the vertical. The value of q is close to 14πε0=9×109, S.I. units
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
