A point charge Q is located a short distance from a point charge 3Q, and no other charges are present, then...? A point charge Q
is located a short distance from a point charge 3Q, and no other charges are present. If the electrical force on Q is F, the electrical force on 3Q is? b.) F/3 d.)sqrt of 3F
The relationship between two charges and the electrical
force they are experiencing is described using the Coulomb’s law. The Coulomb's
law<span> states that: “The
degree of the electrostatic force of attraction between 2 point charges is
directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of the 2 charges and
inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.” Where the
force is along the straight line joining them. Therefore this is
expressed mathematically as:</span>
F = k q1 q2 / d^2
This also means that the electrical force experienced by 2
charges is equal. Therefore if charge Q experiences an electrical force of F,
therefore the electrical force on 3Q is also F.
