Question

Consider 3 charged bodies p q and r. If p reply q and p attarct r what is the nature of force between q amd r?

Answer 1

let us suppose that charge on p is positive.

also we know that like charges repel each other.............therefore the charge on q would also be positive.

p =  (+)

q = (+)

the question says that p attracts r and we know that unlike charges attract each other............therefore, charge on r is negative.

r = (-)

so nature of force between q and r would be attractive....

I HOPE U GET THAT..........

Answer 2

Answer:

Accepted Answer: Since, p and q repel each other, they have similar charges. p and r attract each other means they have opposite charges. Thus, q and r also have opposite charges and hence the nature of force between them is attractive.
