NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Consider the following statements regarding electric charges and their interactions: 1) The force between two point charges is affected by their separation distance. 2) The size of charged bodies can be ignored when they are treated as point charges. 3) The force of attraction exists between charges of the same sign. 4) Coulomb's law states that the force is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of the charges involved. Which combination of these statements is correct?
1, 2, and 4 are correct.
1, 3, and 4 are correct.
2 and 3 are correct.
1, 2, 3, and 4 are correct.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Statements 1, 2, and 4 are correct as they reflect the principles of Coulomb's law and the treatment of point charges. Statement 3 is incorrect because the force of attraction occurs between opposite charges, not between charges of the same sign.
