Question

1. What happens when like charges are brought closer to each other?


​

Answer 1

Answer: Like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract

Step-by-step explanation:

two negative charges repel one another, while a positive charge attracts a negative charge

Answer 2

Like charges repel each other; unlike charges attract. Thus, two negative charges repel one another, while a positive charge attracts a negative charge. The attraction or repulsion acts along the line between the two charges. The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges.
