How does increasing the amount of charge on an object affect the electric force it exerts on another charged object?

a. the electric force increases because the amount of charge has an indirect relationship to the force.

b. the electric force increases because the amount of charge has a direct relationship to the force.

c. the electric force decreases because the amount of charge has an indirect relationship to the force.

d. the electric force decreases because the amount of charge has a direct relationship to the force.

There is a direct relationship between the amount of charges and force.

Explanation:

Electric force between two charges is given by as per Coulombs' law :

............(1)

k is the electrostatic constant

From equation (1) it is clear that the force between the charges is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

In this case, on increasing the amount of charge on an object, the electric force increases because the amount of charge has a direct relationship to the force.

Hence, the correct option is (b).

electromagnetic waves travel through space with vacuums. give me brainliest if right.

b.
