Two charged objects have a repulsive force of .80 N. If the charge of one of the objects is doubled, then what is the new force?
The new force would be 1.6 N.
Since the charges multiply as variables (q1)x(q2), then it would simply be double (q1)x(q2), or 1.6.
The force is directly proportional to the charge. The repulsive force of the objects doubled if the force of one object is doubled.
Electric Charge:
The repulsive force is the product of two charges. When charge of one is doubled the force will also be doubled.
Therefore, the repulsive force of the objects doubled if the force of one object is doubled.
