Sagot :

Answer:

The correct option is (d). "3x stronger".

Explanation:

The force between two charged particle is given by :

[tex]F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

If one charge is tripled, [tex]q_1'=3q[/tex]

New force will be :

[tex]F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2}{r^2}\\\\=3\times F[/tex]

It means if one of the charges were to triple in strength, then the force will become 3 times of the initial force.
