which of the following is inversely proportional to the force between two electric point charges? A. the square of the distance between them B. the magnitude o f Charge 1 C. the magnitude of Charge 2 D. the distance between them

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: applying the Coulomb's law, we can write: \[\Large {r^2}F = K{Q_1}{Q_2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok! what do we plug in?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

we have to study the form of that expression only!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh okay! what does that mean for this problem? :/

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

that expression means the square of the distance and the force F are inversely proportional each other

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh so choice A?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes! correct!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay!! okay last one!!:)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok!
