Two uniform spheres having opposite charges. The coulomb force of attraction between them is F. When they are connected by a wire and then separated and placed at the same distance, then the coulomb force becomes repulsive and equals F15. Calculate the ratio of initial charges on the spheres.

Two spherical conductors, B and C having equal radii and carrying equal charges repel each other with a force F when kept apart at some distance. A third spherical conductor having same radius as that of B but uncharged is brought in contact with B, then brought in contact with C and finally removed away from both. The new force of repulsion between B and C is
