A total charge \(Q\) is broken in two parts \(Q_1\) and \(Q_2\) and they are placed at a distance \(R\) from each other. The maximum force of repulsion between them will occur, when:

1. \(Q_2=\frac{Q}{R}, Q_1=Q-\frac{Q}{R}\)            
2. \(Q_2=\frac{Q}{4}, Q_1=Q-\frac{2 Q}{3}\)            
3. \(Q_2=\frac{Q}{4}, Q_1=\frac{3 Q}{4}\)            
4. \(Q_1=\frac{Q}{2}, Q_2=\frac{Q}{2}\)

Five balls numbered 1 to 5 are suspended using separate threads. Pairs (1, 2), (2, 4), and (4, 1) show electrostatic attraction, while pairs (2, 3) and (4, 5) show repulsion. Therefore ball 1 must be:

1. positively charged.

2. negatively charged.

3. neutral.

4. made of metal.
