Problem

Two identical particles are charged and held at a distance of 1 m from each other. They are found to be attracting each other with a force of 0.027 N. Now, they are connected by a conducting wire so that charge flows between them. When the charge flow stops, they are found to be repelling each other with a force of 0.009 N. Find the initial charge on each particle.
