 MCQ type Question [ +4 , -1]
Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by
two massless strings of length l are initially a distance d(d << l)
apart because of their mutual repulsion. The charge begins to leak
from both the spheres at a constant rate. As a result charges
approach each other with a velocity v. Then as a function of
distance x between them, (AIEEE 2011)

A. v ∝ x-1

B. v ∝ x1/2

C. v ∝ x

D. v ∝ x-1/2
