JEE Main & Advanced Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Charge and Coulombs Law

  • question_answer
    The force between two charges \[0.06\,m\] apart is \[5\,N\]. If each charge is moved towards the other by \[0.01\,m\], then the force between them will become        [SCRA 1994]

    A)                    \[7.20\,N\]                    

    B)                                              \[11.25\,N\]

    C)                    \[22.50\,N\]                             

    D)                    \[45.00\,N\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                 \[F\propto \frac{1}{{{r}^{2}}}\Rightarrow \frac{{{F}_{1}}}{{{F}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{{{r}_{2}}}{{{r}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}\]Þ\[\frac{5}{{{F}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{0.04}{0.06} \right)}^{2}}={{F}_{2}}=11.25\,N\]
