Rank the force on each of the point charges q 1 and q 2 in the following

Question:

Rank the force on each of the point charges q1 and q2 in the following pairings from most attractive to most repulsive. The separation, d, between each pair is given. Explain the reasoning you used to arrive at your rankings.

Pair 1: q1 = + 2 μC; q2 = - 4 μC; and d = 10 cm

Pair 2: q1 = + 2 μC; q2 = - 2 μC; and d = 5 cm

Pair 3: q1 = + 3 μC; q2 = + 3 μC; and d = 10 cm

Pair 4: q1 = - 5 μC; q= - 2 μC; and d = 20 cm
