6.3.1

According to Coulomb's Law, when the distance increases, the electrostatic force ____________.

• increases

• decreases

• remains unchanged

• has no relationship to distance

Answer explanation

This question links to success criteria 6.3.1: I can predict how a change in charge or distance will affect the electric force between two objects.

If you got it correct place a check mark in the question results section. If you got it incorrect place an X in that section. If this was a redemption question, cross out the one X and replace it with a check mark.

Gravity is only able to pull things. Why can the electric force push or pull?

• There are two types of electric charge. There is only one type of mass.

• the electric force depends on the distance between charges but the gravity force does not depend on the distance between masses

• There are two types of mass but only one type of charge.

• gravitational force can act over long distances, but electric force only acts over short distances
