Question
Use the table of observations about the electric force between charged objects to answer the question.

Charge of Object 1 (C) Charge of Object 2 (C) Distance (mm) Amount of Electric Force
+1 +1 4 medium
–1 –1 2 strong
–2 +2 4 strong
An object with a charge of +1 C is 10 mm from an object with a charge of +1 C. Based on the data in the table, which type and amount of electrical force will there most likely be between the two objects?
