12th Class Physics Electric Charges and Fields Question Bank MCQ - Electric Charges and Fields

  • question_answer
    Two point charges of \[+3\mu C\] and \[+4\mu C\] repel each other with a force of 10 N. If each is given an additional charge of \[6\mu C\] the new force is:

    A) 2N

    B) 4N

    C) 5N

    D) 7.5N 

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (c) 5 N Here, \[{{q}_{1}}=+3\mu C,\,{{q}_{2}}=+4\,\mu C,\,F=10\,N\] \[q{{'}_{1}}=+3-6=-3\mu C,\] \[q{{'}_{2}}=+4-6=-2\mu C\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\frac{F'}{F}=\frac{\left( q{{'}_{1}} \right)\left( q{{'}_{2}} \right)}{{{q}_{1}}{{q}_{2}}}\] \[=\frac{\left( -3 \right)\times \left( -2 \right)}{3\times 4}=\frac{6}{12}=\frac{1}{2}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,F'=\frac{1}{2}\times F=\frac{1}{2}\times 10=5N\]
