(b) A charged body is electrically unstable
(c) * A charged body has equal number of positive and negative charges
(d) Positively charged body is deficient of electrons

2.Calculate the distance x between charges q1 and q2 shown, given the repulsive force between them as 1.2 x 10-4 N, take the permittivity of vacuum where they were as 8.842x 10 -12 F/M and charge on q1=
1.6x10-19c
