With the help of conservation of volume, we can write

  2 7 × 4 3 π r 3 = 4 3 π R 3 ⇒ R = 3 r . . . . . . . ( 1 )                            

With the help of conservation of charge, we can write

Q = 27 q.(2)

Potential energy of single drop = U1 =   q 2 8 π ε 0 r

Kindly go throiugh the solution 

  λ = c v = Q 3 W 2 = I 3 T 3 M 2 L 4 T − 4 ⇒ [ λ ] = [ M − 2 L − 4 T 7 l 3 ]

Let the charge of on each drop be q and radius of each drop be r.

  k q r = 2

When all drops are joined, radius,

r ' = ( 5 1 2 ) 1 3 r = 8 r

Potential of the new drop,

V = k . 5 1 2 q 8 r = 6 4 k q r = 1 2 8 V

According to relation between field and potential, we can write

  E → = − d V d x ( i ^ ) = − d ( 3 x 2 ) d x ( i ^ ) = − 6 x ( i ^ )

E → ( 1 ,   0 ,   3 ) = − 6 ( i ^ ) N / C

According to Law of discharging of capacitor, we can write

Q = Q 0 e − t τ ⇒ Q 2 8 = Q 0 e − t 2 τ ⇒ t 2 3 τ l n ( 2 ) ,     a n d

U = Q 2 2 C = Q 0 2 2 C e − 2 t τ ⇒ 1 2 ( Q 0 2 2 C ) = Q 0 2 2 C e − 2 t τ ⇒ t 1 = τ 2 l n ( 2 )

⇒ t 1 t 2 = 1 6

k Q e 0 . 1 2 + 1 2 m u 2 = k Q e 0 . 1 5 + 1 2 m u 2

k Q e × 0 . 0 3 0 . 1 2 × 0 . 1 5 = 1 2 m × ( v 2 − u 2 )

Q = 9 . 1 × 9 9 × 1 0 − 1 1 1 2

= 7 5 . 0 7 5 × 1 0 − 1 2 4 π × ( 0 . 1 ) 2 = 5 . 9 7     n C / m 2
