Question

If we increase the mass of the two charges the electric force __________.

  1. Increases
  2. Decreases
  3. Remains the same
  4. Becomes zero

hintHint:

When two charges are put at the same distance from one another, the electric force between them is equal to the electric force between the two.
This suggests that the electric force is independent of the particle's mass. Instead, it is based on a new quantity: the electric charge or potential.

The correct answer is: Remains the same


    If the mass of two charges is increased, the electric force will remain the same.
    • The electric force depends on the product of charges and the distance between two charges.
    • The rate of electric force does not depend on the mass of the two charges.
    • Even when the mass of two charges increases, the electric force remains the same or unchanged.
