T sin θ = (1/4πε? ) * q²/ (2lsinθ)²
T cos θ = mg
∴ tan θ = q² / (4πε? mg * 4l²sin²θ)
[tan θ ≈ θ, for small angle]
So, θ³ = q² / (16πε? mgl²)
θ = ( q² / (16πε? mgl²) )¹/³
Also separation = 2l sin θ ≈ 2lθ
= 2l ( q² / (16πε? mgl²) )¹/³
= ( 8q²l³ / (16πε? mgl²) )¹/³
= ( q²l / (2πε? mg) )¹/³

When two or more individual charges are present in a system, the total charge will be an algebraic sum of all individual charges and not the vector sum. Therefore, an electric charge is considered as a scalar quantity.
An electric dipole is placed on x – axis in proximity to a line charged of linear density 3.0 × 10-6 C/m. Line charge is placed on z – axis and positive and negative charge of dipole is at a distance of 10 mm and 12 mm from the origin respectively. If total force of 4N is exerted on the dipole, find out the amount of positive charge of the dipole.
