Question
If the two charges are similar, then Coulomb's law implies that the force F is:
I. attractive
II. repulsive
III. neutral
I. attractive
II. repulsive
III. neutral
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. If the two charges are similar (both positive or both negative), the force between them will be repulsive.
Hint
Like charges repel, opposite charges attract.
