Question

Which statement describes a force between charged particles?

1)Like charges repel each other.

2)Like charges attract each other.

3)Unlike charges repel each other

Answer 1

like charges repel each other

Answer 2

When it comes to electromagnetism, like charges would repel, while opposite charges would attract. That is why a current passes when the circuit is arranged such that opposite charges are facing each other while like charges are facing away from each other. Thus, the applicable statement would be 1 : 1)Like charges repel each other.
