Which statement best explains the relationship between the electric force between two charged objects and the distance between them? A. As the distance increase by a factor, the electric force increases by the square of that factor. B. As the distance increases by a factor, the electric force increases by twice that factor. C. As the distance increases by a factor, the electric force decreases by twice that factor. D. As the distance increases by a factor, the electric force decreases by the same factor. E. As the distance increases by a factor, the electric force decreases by the square of that factor.
Hello!
E. As the distance increases by a factor, the electric force decreases by the square of that factor.
The eletric force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
"As the distance increases by
a factor, the electric force decreases by the square of that factor" best explains the relationship between the electric force between two charged objects and the distance between them.
The force exerted on the
charged particles is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between
them. The further they are the less the force the closer
they are the more the force.
The correct answer between all
the choices given is the last choice or letter E. I am hoping that this answer
has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and
