Two point charges \(+6 \mu \mathrm{C}\) and \(+10 \mu \mathrm{C}\) kept at certain distance repel each other with a force of 30 N . If each charge is given an additional charge of \(-8 \mu \mathrm{C}\), the two charges

  1. A Attract with a force of 2 N
  2. B repel with a force of 2 N
  3. C Attract with a force of 15 N
  4. D repel with a force of 15 N
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Attract with a force of 2 N

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{F}=\frac{\mathrm{kq}_1 \mathrm{q}_2}{\mathrm{r}^2} \Rightarrow 30=\frac{\mathrm{k}(6)(10)}{\mathrm{r}^2} \Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{k}}{\mathrm{r}^2}=\frac{1}{2}\) Now, it \(-8 \mu \mathrm{c}\) charge given on indivisual charge then,…
