Can you please help me with the following problem?

Two charges separated by one meter exert 1-N forces on each other. If the charges are pushed to 1/4 meter separation, the force on each charge will be?

5 answers

The inverse law applies. What is the reciprocal of 1/4 squared? As charges get closer, the force increases dramatically?

Would it be 16 N?

Yes.

What is the pressure

What is the solution?
