−20 μC, 40 μC and q are the charges on three identical spherical conductors P, Q and R respectively. Now P and Q attract each other with a force F when they are separated by a distance d. Now P and Q are made in contact with each other and then separated. Again Q and R are touched and they are separated by a distance ‘d’. The repulsive force between Q and R is 2F. Then the charge q is

Detailed Solution
During conduction, due to contact each sphere acquires average of both the charges. F =14π∈0q1q2d2q1=-20μC=-20×10-6 C and q2=40μC =40×10-6 CF=9×109×20×40×10−12d2---(1)when P, Q are touched and separted they get each of charge =-20+402=10μC2F=9×109×(10+q2)2d2----(2)Form (1) and (2) we get ⇒q=70 μc
