What happens to the electric force between two charges if you increase the distance between them by a factor of 5?

Since you are reducing the distance between the charges by 7 times, hence the new force b/w the charges will be 49 times the electric force between the charges in the previous condition.

∙ 11y agoThe electrostatic force is multiplied by the factor of 1/52 = 1/25.
It becomes 4% of what it was before the move.
Just like gravity.

How is the electric force between two positive charges changed if the distance between the charges is tripled?
It is reduced to one ninth. Force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
What two factors determine the amount of electric force between two objects?
The product of the two charges and the distance between the charges.
What are the two factors that affect the strength of electric force?
The masses of the objects and the distance between them.The force of gravity between two objects is proportional to their masses, and inversely proportional to the square of their distance from each other.F = Gm1m2 / r2, where G is 6.67384 x 10-11 N(m/kg)2
How do you calculate the electric force between two charges?
electric force between 2 charges is equal to product of the amount of charge(in units) of both particles and a constant 9*109 divided by the square of the distance between them.
What 2 things does an electric force depend on?
Force between charges depend on the quantity of charge and distance between them
Two point charges q1 and q2 are located a distance r apart in a vacuum Which change to the charges will halve the magnitude of the electric charge between them?
Hello, some error in the words. Electric "force" not electric charge. A/s we increase the distance between the charges ./2 times then force between them will be halved.
The electric force between two charged objects as the distance between them increases and as the magnitudes of their charges increase.?
When the magnitude of the charges increase definitely electrostatic force also increases. Because the force is directly proportional to the product of their charges. When the distance between them increases then force decreases because the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.
If the two charges are fixed such that the distance r is between them does not change but the charge q is increased will the electric force become stronger or weaker?
If the charges increase, the force increases.If the charges increase, the force increases.If the charges increase, the force increases.If the charges increase, the force increases.
When the distance between two charges is halved the electric force between the charges?
The forces in each direction are quadrupled.
If the distance between two objects increases the electric force does what?
When the magnitude of the charges increase definitely electrostatic force also increases. Because the force is directly proportional to the product of their charges. When the distance between them increases then force decreases because the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

What two factors determine the amount of electric force between two objects?
The product of the two charges and the distance between the charges.
How could you increase the electric force between two charges?
Bring them closer together.

How does distance effect the electric force between two objects?
Electric force can act at a distance, but is stronger when objects are closer. the electric force is larger the closer the two objects are The electric force varies with the distance between the charges. The closer they are, the stronger the force. The farther apart they are, the weaker the force.
Determine the amount by which the electric force between two charges is increased when the distance between the charges is halved?
If the charge on the object is double than the force between them is double
How do you calculate the electric force between two charges?
electric force between 2 charges is equal to product of the amount of charge(in units) of both particles and a constant 9*109 divided by the square of the distance between them.
