Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of lengths $l,$ are initially at a distance $d\;(d < < l)$ 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 $v.$ Then $v$ varies as a function of the distance $x$ between the spheres, as

$A$ and $B$ are two identical blocks made of a conducting material. These are placed on a horizontal frictionless table and connected by a light conducting spring of force constant $‘K’$. Unstretched length of the spring is $L_0$. Charge $Q/2$ is given to each block. Consequently, the spring stretches to an equilibrium length $L$. Value of $Q$ is
