What is the force between two small charged spheres having charges of 2 x 10-7 C and 3 x 10-7 C placed 30 cm apart in air?


question : -






Answer :-

Repulsive force of magnitude

Charge of the first sphere 

Charge of the second sphere

Distance between the spheres, r = 30 cm = 0.3m

Electrostatic force between the spheres is given by the relation,



Where, E0 = Permittivity of free space



Hence, force between the two small charged spheres isThe charges are of same nature. Hence, force between them will be repulsive.
