Problem

Two small Styrofoam balls, each of mass m=10 gm = 10\,\text{g} and carrying equal positive charge qq, are suspended from the same point by insulating threads of length L=1 mL = 1\,\text{m}. At equilibrium, the threads make an angle of 60∘60^{\circ} with each other. Determine the charge qq on each ball.
