The distance between two point charges \(q_1 = 5\) mC and \(q_2 = -10\) mC in vacuum so that electrostatic force of attraction between them is 50 kN is :

  1. A 9 m
  2. B 3 m
  3. C 44 m
  4. D 10 m
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 3 m

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(r = \sqrt{k \frac{|q_1 q_2|}{F}}\) \(r = \sqrt{\frac{(9 \times 10^9 \text{ N m}^2/\text{C}^2) \times |(5 \times 10^{-3} \text{ C})(-10 \times 10^{-3} \text{ C})|}{50 \times 10^3 \text{ N}}}\) \(r = 3 \text{ m}\)
