Question

Three equal charges are placed on the three corner of a square.if the force between q1 and q2 is F12 and that between q1 and q3 is F13,then the ratio of magnitude F12/F13 is

Answer 1

Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

Assuming charge 1 and 2 are on diagnol... Distance b/w them is 2^1/2 times distnace b/w 1&3... So the force is halved... As it is in inverse proportion with square of distance
