Question: The distance between 2 charges is doubled. What happens to the force between them?
Asked by wezzy
When the distance between two charges is doubled, the electrostatic force between them becomes quarter of its initial value. This is explained by Coulomb's Law, which states that the force between two charges is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. So, if distance is doubled, force is divided by the square of 2, which results in the force being quartered.
