Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of length $l$ are initially a distance $d$ $(d \ll l)$ apart because of their mutual repulsion. The charge begins to leak from both the spheres at a constant rate. As a result,the spheres approach each other with a velocity $v$. Then,as a function of distance $x$ between them,

  • A
    $v \propto x^{-1/2}$
  • B
    $v \propto x^{-1}$
  • C
    $v \propto x^{1/2}$
  • D
    $v \propto x$
