The electrostatic force between two charges located 2 meters apart is 0.10 N. What will the force be between these charges when they are located 1 meter apart?

Respuesta :

given that 2 m is to .10N

we will set up a ratio & proportion

.10 x
— —
2 1

cross multiply

2x = .10(1)

divide both sides by 2

x (and the answer) = .05 N
