Two objects, A with charge +Q and B with charge +4Q, are separated by a distance r. The magnitude of the force exerted on the second object by the first is F. If the first object is moved to a distance 2r from the second object, what is the magnitude of the electric force on the second object?

The magnitude of electric force on object B due to object A when they are 2r distance apart is F/4.

Explanation:

Given :

Electric charge on object A = +Q

Electric charge on object B = +4Q

When the objects A and B are r distance apart, the magnitude of electrostatic force exerted on B due to A is given by the relation :

     .....(1)

Now, the two objects are apart by distance of 2r, hence the force acting on the object B due to A is :

Substitute equation (1) in the above equation.
