Question 14 • LHS Physical Science

Which change will decrease the electric force between two positively charged objects?

Answer
A
moving them closer together
B
moving them farther apart
C
adding neutrons
D
removing electrons

Explanation

The electric force gets weaker as the distance between two charged objects increases. Moving them farther apart decreases their force; moving them closer would increase it. Adding neutrons does not change their electric charge, and removing electrons from positively charged objects would make their positive charges larger.
