Question

What is meant by a statement that electrostatic force obeys the principle of superposition?​

Answer 1

Answer: Superposition principle : It states that the electrostatic total force acting on a system is the algerbraic vector sum of individual forces acting on it due to the whole charge.

.

Let q₁ , q₂ , q₃ ..... qₙ be the charge.

then,

   ( F = F₁ + F₂ + F₃ ....... + Fₙ) in vector form.
