NEET 2019 Physics Coulomb's Law MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

Two point charges A and B, having charges + Q and – Q respectively, are placed at certain distance apart and force acting between them is F. If 25% charge of A is transferred to B, then force between the charges becomes:

A

16F/9

B

4F/3

C

F

D

9F/16

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

When 25% of charge from A is transferred to B, the new charges become 0.75Q and0d^{-0}.75Q. The force is proportional to the product of charges, so the new force is (0.75Q * 0.75Q)/(Q * Q) * F = (9/16)F.
