Question

Responses

As the charge increases, the force increases in strength.
As the charge increases, the force increases in strength.

As the charge increases, the force becomes more attractive.
As the charge increases, the force becomes more attractive.

As the charge increases, the force decreases in strength.
As the charge increases, the force decreases in strength.

As the charge increases, the force becomes more negative.

Answer 1

The correct response is:

As the charge increases, the force increases in strength.

According to Coulomb's law, the electric force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of their charges. This means that as the charge on either or both objects increases, the electric force between them also increases in strength.
