Two charged particles with the same charge are held apart at a distance. What will the particles likely do if they are released?

Question 2 options:

A) They will rotate around one another according to the right hand rule

B) They will accelerate towards each other

C) They will accelerate away from each other

D) They will stay in place

C) They will accelerate away from each other

Explanation:

Just like magnets, if the charges are the same, the point charges will repel one another.  They will exert a net force in opposite directions, and will thus accelerate away from one another.

another example of kinetic energy would be,

kinetic energy   >     moving energy

answer   >   letter choice (c),   a hammer falling off a table.
