force is inversely proportional to the separation distance squared.
F1 = kq1q2 / r1^2
F2 = kq1q2 / r2^2
ratio of the forces we can determine the ratio of the separation distances
F1/F2 = (r1/r2)^2
r2/r1 = sqrt(F1/F2)
r2/r1 = sqrt(1/25)
r2/r1 = 1/5
The separation decreased by a factor of 5
13. Two point charges are brought closer together, increasing the force between them by a factor...
Two charges are brought together until they are 100cm apart, causing the electric force between them to increase by a factor of exactly 5. What was their initial separation distance?
6. When two point charges are moved further apart, the force between them decreases by a factor of 100. By what factor was their separation increased?
Two charges are a distance d apart. By what factor will the force between the charges change if the separation between them is quadrupled? Select one: a. 8 b. 4 c. 1/16 d. 1/4
Problem 1: Suppose you wanted to increase the force between two point charges by a factor of 5. By what factor must you change the distance between them?
If potential energy increases as like charges are brought closer together, why wouldn't the work done be negative? I thought work was defined as the negative of the change in potential energy.
10%) Problem 4: factor of 21 The force between two charges is increased by decreasing the distance between them. Then force is increased by By what factor did their separation decrease?

Two point charges are separated by a distance r. If the separation is reduced by a factor of 2.9, by what factor does the electric force between them change?
Two point charges are separated by 10 cm and the attractive force between them is 100N. If the charges are moved to a distance of 20 cm (twice the distance), what will the force between them change to? 200N no change, stays at 100N 50N O 25N
Please, no referring. A +30 μC point charge is placed 42 cm from an identical +30 μC charge.How much work would be required for an external force to move a +0.50 μC test charge from a point midway between them to a point 13 cm closer to either of the charges?
Two point charges are separated by 10 cm and the attractive force between them is 100N. If the charges are moved to a distance of 20 cm (twice the distance), what will the force between them change to? no change, stays at 100N O 25N O SON O 200N
