Options
A Remains same
B Decreases
Correct Answer
C increases
D becomes zero
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

A dielectric medium has relative permittivity eps_r > 1, and F_medium = F_vacuum/eps_r, so the force DECREASES when a dielectric is introduced between the charges.
