Two small plastic spheres are given positive electrical charges. When they are 15.0 $\mathrm{cm}$ apart, the repulsive force between them has magnitude 0.220 $\mathrm{N} .$ What is the charge on each sphere (a) if the two charges are equal and (b) if one sphere has four times the charge of the other?
