My bad.
Alright i got it out... It still doesn't make complete sense to me though.
I was first getting confused by finding the x and y components than finding the resultant of that for the tenision and then using the distance between the two spheres. You have to do them seperately and then find...
Thaks for the reply.
Is the equilibrium position the position it is in the question? As this is where the forces are keeping each ball.
Are the forces magnetic, electric, and the work force?
I did (mg x d) to get the work force, and then split it up into x and y. The x components canceled out...
