To determine which pair of objects will have an attractive electric force, we need to consider the types of charges involved.

  1. Pair A: Charge -2 and Charge -1 (both negative) - Repulsive
  2. Pair B: Charge -3 and Charge +1 (one negative and one positive) - Attractive
  3. Pair C: Charge +3 and Charge +1 (both positive) - Repulsive
  4. Pair D: Charge +1 and Charge +2 (both positive) - Repulsive

The only pair that has one positive and one negative charge, resulting in an attractive force, is Pair B (Charge -3 and Charge +1).

Therefore, the correct response is Pair B.
