Question

Coulomb’s Law relates which of the following?

The force between two masses and the distances separating them.
The force of a magnetic field on a beam of electrons.
The force between two charges and the distance separating them.
The force and acceleration of a mass.

Answer 1

Coulomb’s Law states the force between two charges
in terms of the magnitude of the charges and the distance
between them.

Answer 2

The answer is "The force between two charges and the distance separating them".

Coulomb's Law is written as:


`F=k (q_1q_2)/(r^2)`

In which
`F` is the force felt between two charges,
`q_1` is the charge of one particle,
`q_2` is the charge of the other particle,
`r` is the distance separating them, and
`k` is a constant.
