Question

If two charges are similar, then Coulomb's law implies that the force F is:
Options
A attractive
B repulsive
Correct Answer
C neutral
D I, II and III only
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Coulomb's Law states that like charges repel each other, and opposite charges attract each other. Therefore, if two charges are similar (both positive or both negative), the force between them will be repulsive.

Hint

Remember the fundamental principle of electrostatic interaction: 'likes repel, unlikes attract'.
