Two identical conducting spheres, fixed in space, attract each other with an electrostatic force of `0.108 N` when separated by `50.0 cm`, centre-to-centre. A thin conducting wire then connects the spheres. When the wire is removed, the spheres repel each other with an electrostatic force of `0.0360 N`. What were the initial charges on the spheres?
