Two small spheres of each charge $q$,mass $m$ and material density $d$ are suspended from a fixed point with the help of inextensible light threads. When the spheres are in air,the angle between the threads is $90^{\circ}$. When the spheres are suspended in a liquid of density $\frac{2}{3} d$,the angle between the threads is $60^{\circ}$. The value of the dielectric constant of the liquid is
