Question
What is the nature of the force which is experienced between an electron and a proton?
- Force of attraction
- Force of repulsion
- No force is experienced
- All of these
Hint:
Like charges repel each other; unlike charges attract.
The correct answer is: Force of attraction
Like charges repel each other; unlike charges attract. Thus, two negative charges repel one another, while a positive charge attracts a negative charge. The attraction or repulsion acts along the line between the two charges. The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges
Force of attraction is Answer
