Question

Object A has a charge of -1 Coulomb. At a given distance, the object withh which charge would be most strongly attracted by object A?

+2 C

-1 C

+1 C

-2 C

Answer 1

Object A, which has a charge of -1 Coulomb, will be most strongly attracted to the object with a charge of +2 C. The attraction between two charged objects is strongest when the charges are opposite in sign. Since object A has a negative charge, it will be attracted to an object with a positive charge. The +2 C charge is the highest positive charge given, so it will result in the strongest attraction.
