\begin{array}{l} \mathrm{T} \cos \theta=\mathrm{mg}=10 \times 10^{-6} \times 10=10^{-4} \\\\ \mathrm{~T} \sin \theta=\frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times \mathrm{q}^{2}}{0.04}=\mathrm{F} \\ \\ \tan \theta==\frac{0.1}{\sqrt{0.24}}=\frac{\mathrm{F}}{\mathrm{mg}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{q}=\frac{2 \sqrt{10}}{3 \sqrt{\sqrt{24}}} \times 10^{-8} \\ \\ \Rightarrow q=0.95 \times 10^{-8}=\frac{\mathrm{a}}{21} \times 10^{-8} \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{a}=20 \end{array}
