The Electrostatic Force ( F ) Between Two Plates of a Charged

question 50

Multiple Choice

The electrostatic force ( F ) between two plates of a charged capacitor is directly proportional to the product of the charges ( $q_ 1$ and $q_2$ ) on each plate and inversely proportional to the square of the distance ( d ) between the plates.

• A) \(F = \frac { q _ { 1 } } { d q _ { 2 } }\)
• B) \(F = \frac { d } { q 1 q 2 }\)
• C) \(F = \frac { q 1 q 2 } { d }\)
• D) \(F = \frac { q 1 q 2 } { d ^ { 2 } }\)
