To determine the type and amount of electric force between an object with a charge of +1 C and another object with a charge of +1 C at a distance of 10 mm, we must first consider the nature of the charges.
Since both objects have a charge of +1 C, they have the same type of charge. According to Coulomb’s law, like charges repel each other.
From the observations in the table you provided, we can see that:
- The force is **strong** between two charges of the same sign at a distance of 2 mm (e.g., -1 and -1 C).
- A charge of -2 C and +2 C at a distance of 4 mm also exerts a **strong** force.
While the distance in your scenario is 10 mm (which wasn't directly tested in the provided observations), we can infer based on charge interactions that:
1. The force will be **repulsive** since both charges are +1 C.
2. The amount of force can still be considered **strong** because of the significant magnitude of the charges, albeit the exact value might decrease with increased distance.
Therefore, the most appropriate response is:
**repulsive, strong**
