Question

Which statement correctly describes how attractions that hold particles break?(1 point)
Attractions occur due to electrostatic forces. When particles have low enough energy, these forces can no
longer keep particles together.
Attractions occur due to electrostatic forces. When particles move fast enough, these forces can no longer
keep particles together.
Attractions occur due to gravitational forces. When particles move fast enough, these forces can no longer
keep particles together.

Answer 1

The correct statement is:

**Attractions occur due to electrostatic forces. When particles have low enough energy, these forces can no longer keep particles together.**

This explains that electrostatic forces are responsible for holding particles together, and when the energy of the particles is low enough, these forces are sufficient to keep them bound.
