The initial force between the two charges is given by:
where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 the two charges, d their separation. Let's analyze now the other situations:
1. F
In this case, q1 is halved, q2 is doubled, but the distance between the charges remains d.
So, we have:
So, the new force is:
So the force has not changed.
2. F/4
In this case, q1 and q2 are unchanged. The distance between the charges is doubled to 2d.
So, we have:
So, the new force is:
So the force has decreased by a factor 4.
3. 6F
In this case, q1 is doubled and q2 is tripled. The distance between the charges remains d.
So, we have:
So, the new force is:
So the force has increased by a factor 6.
