These arrows are indicating a repelling force away from each other.
These arrows are indicating a repelling force away from each other.

The arrows are indicating an attractive force towards each other.

Answer 1

The direction of the arrows indicates the nature of the electrostatic force between charged objects. If the arrows are pointing away from each other, it indicates a repelling force. If the arrows are pointing towards each other, it indicates an attractive force.

Therefore:
- If arrows are pointing away from each other: **These arrows are indicating a repelling force away from each other.**
- If arrows are pointing towards each other: **The arrows are indicating an attractive force towards each other.**

You would need to observe the direction of the arrows to determine which of these responses is correct.
