Two identical charged spheres are suspended by strings of equal length. The strings make an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with each other. When they are immersed in a liquid of density $0.8 \, g \cdot cm^{-3}$,the angle remains the same. If the density of the material of the spheres is $1.6 \, g \cdot cm^{-3}$,find the dielectric constant of the liquid.

Select the correct statement from the following.

The ratio of Coulomb's electrostatic force to the gravitational force between an electron and a proton separated by some distance is $2.4 \times 10^{39}$. The ratio of the proportionality constant $K = \frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0}$ to the gravitational constant $G$ is nearly (Given that the charge of the proton and electron each $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \; C$,the mass of the electron $= 9.11 \times 10^{-31} \; kg$,the mass of the proton $= 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \; kg$):
