CP Two identical spheres with mass m are hung from silk

Chapter 21, Problem 68P

(choose chapter or problem)

CP Two identical spheres with mass m are hung from silk threads of length L (Fig. P21.62). The spheres have the same charge, so q1 = q2 = q. The radius of each sphere is very small compared to the distance between the spheres, so they may be treated as point charges. Show that if the angle ? is small, the equilibrium separation d between the spheres is (Hint: If ? is small, then
