question

Of the charge QQ on a tiny sphere, a fraction α\alpha is to be transferred to a second, nearby sphere. The spheres can be treated as particles. What value of α\alpha maximizes the magnitude FF of the electrostatic force between the two spheres?
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
Of the charge Q on a tiny sphere, a fraction α is to be transferred to a second, nearby sphere. The spheres can be treated as particles.  What value of α maximizes the magnitude F of the electrostatic force between the two spheres? 
Original LaTeX notation
Of the charge $Q$ on a tiny sphere, a fraction $\alpha$ is to be transferred to a second, nearby sphere. The spheres can be treated as particles.  What value of $\alpha$ maximizes the magnitude $F$ of the electrostatic force between the two spheres?
