BRAINLIEST!!! how does the electric force between two charged particles change if the distance between them is reduced by a factor of 2?


a. its reduced by a factor of 2.

b.. its reduced by a factor of 4.

c. its increased by a factor of 2.

d. it is increased by a factor of 4.

Respuesta :

Answer:

F = K Q1 * Q2 / R^2        force between 2 charged particles

F2 / F1 = R1^2 / R2^2 = (R1 / R2)^2 = (R1 / R1 /2)^2 = 2^2 = 4

d)  the force would be increased by a factor of 4
