Question

Which of thWhich of the following is a true statement?

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Both electric fields and forces decrease in strength as the distance increases.

Explanation:

from the Coulomb's law

$F=\frac{k q_{1} q_{2} }{r^{2}}$

electrif field is also expressed as

F = qE., so

$E = \frac{k q}{r^{2}}$

it can seen that electric force and electric field and dependent on distance. that is inverse square of distance.

so, if the electric force and eletric field decreases in strength, it is because the distance of separation has increased.

B. Both electric fields and forces ...
