The force of repulsion between two like-charged particles will increase if

A) the distance between the charged particles is increased.

B) the distance between the charged particles is decreased.

C) the magnitude of the charge on both the particles is decreased.

D) the magnitude of the charge on one of the particles is decreased.

Respuesta :

Answer:

B). the distance between the charged particles is decreased.

Explanation:

The force of repulsion between two like-charged particles will increase if the distance between the charged particles is decreased.

What is coulomb's law?

According to Coulomb's law: The magnitude of each of the electric forces with which two point-at-rest charges interact is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges

And inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them and has the direction of the line that joins them.

The formula will be given as:

[tex]F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

We can see that the force is inversely proportional to the distance of the two charges.
