NEET Physics Coulomb's Law MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about Coulomb's Law is correct?
Coulomb's Law states that the force between two charges is directly proportional to the product of their magnitudes and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Coulomb's Law holds true only when charges are placed in a vacuum and does not apply in the presence of any matter.
Coulomb's Law does not satisfy Newton’s third law as it applies only to static charges and not to charges in motion.
Coulomb's Law applies to any two charged objects regardless of their distance, without any limitations on the medium between them.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Coulomb's Law describes the electrostatic force between two point charges, stating that the force is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them, as derived from the NCERT context.
