Two point charges, \( q_1 = 3 \, \mu\text{C} \) and \( q_2 = -2 \, \mu\text{C} \), are placed 6 cm apart. The magnitude of the electric force between them is:

  1. A 21.6 N
  2. B 6.75 N
  3. C 15 N
  4. D 39.6 N
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 15 N

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( F = k \frac{|q_1 q_2|}{r^2} \) \( F = (9 \times 10^9 \, \text{N} \cdot \text{m}^2/\text{C}^2) \frac{|(3 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C})(-2 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C})|}{(0.06 \, \text{m})^2} \) \( F = 15 \, \text{N} \)
