Question

Imagine that two charged balls placed some distance apart strongly attract each other. Now imagine placing a pane of glass halfway between the two balls. Will insertion of this glass increase or decrease the magnitude of force that each ball feels, or will it have strictly no effect? Use diagrams to explain your reasoning carefully.

Answer 1

Answer:

decrease

Explanation:

If the two charged ball attracts each other, it means the charge on both the balls are opposite in nature.

As, we insert a glass slab, it means a dielectric is inserted in between the charges. The force between them is reduced.
