To determine the type and amount of electric force between two objects with a charge of +1 C that are 10 mm apart, we can analyze the information given in the table and apply the general principles of electric forces.
-
The table shows that like charges (both +1 C) will exert a repulsive force on each other. This means the force will be repulsive.
-
The amount of force is influenced by the distance between the charges. In the observations provided:
- For a charge of +1 C at a distance of 4 mm, the force was labeled as medium.
- The distance of 10 mm is greater than 4 mm, suggesting that the force would likely be weaker than medium due to the increased distance.
Given that the force would be repulsive and weaker than medium (but still present), the most logical conclusion is:
repulsive, weak.
