We can use equilibrium to measure forcesexerted by charges, magnets, or gravity bymeasuring the deflection that these forces causebetween two hanging spheres as shown in thefigure. The like charges on the spheres causes.them to move away from each other. If the weightof the sphere is W = 106 [N], and the geometry6.91 [cm], 196.6 [cm], andis given by w =r = 0.889 [m], answer the following:What is the electrostatic force, F, repelling the twospheres?[N]

W have used the concept of equillibrium of forces along horizontal and vertical
