Question
Do two positively charged balls attract each other?

Answer

Yes, when the charge on the first ball is greater than that on the second ball, then due to induction some charge of opposite nature gets induced on the second ball. Therefore, the second ball will experience a force of attraction towards the first ball.

Given a uniform electric field$\overrightarrow{\text{E}}: 4 \times 10^3\  \hat{i} N/C,$ find the flux of this field through a square of $5\ cm$ on a side whose plane is parallel to the $y-z$ plane. What would be the flux through the same square if the plane makes a $30^{\circ}$ angle with the $x-$axis?
A molecule of a substance has a permanent electric dipole moment of magnitude $10^{-29} C m$. A mole of this substance is polarised (at low temperature) by applying a strong electrostatic field of magnitude $10^6 V m ^{-1}$. The direction of the field is suddenly changed by an angle of $60^{\circ}$. Estimate the heat released by the substance in aligning its dipoles along the new direction of the field. For simplicity, assume $100 \%$ polarisation of the sample.
