ELECTROSTATICS · IMAT Doutor1 / 1
Two point charges are moved so that their separation doubles. What happens to the force between them?
A
It halves, because force is inversely proportional to distance
B
It doubles, because the charges have more space between them
C
It falls to a quarter of its original value
D
It quadruples, because force depends on the square of the distance
E
It stays the same, because the charges themselves do not change
