Question 6

According to Coulomb’s law, what happens to the electric force between two point charges if the distance between them is halved?

Accepted Answer

The force increases by a factor of four.

Question 7

Which equation correctly represents Coulomb’s law for the magnitude of the force between two point charges?

Accepted Answer

$$F = K \frac{|q_1$||q_2$|}{r^2$}$$

Question 8

A neutral conducting sphere is brought near a positively charged rod but not touched. What happens to the charges in the sphere?

Accepted Answer

Negative charges in the sphere move toward the rod, positive charges move away.
