Point charges A and B are equal. They are fixed in space, and each charge exerts a force on the other of magnitude F=4.9 N. Suppose the charge of B is increased by a factor of 5.0, but everything else is unchanged.

Charges A and B in the figure are equal. Each charge exerts a force on the other of magnitude F. Suppose the charge of B is increased by a factor of 4, but everything else is unchanged. In terms of F, what is the magnitude of the force on A? In terms of F, what is the magnitude of the force on B?

Two charges Q and q, with Q on the left, are the only ones present in a in a region of space and Q attracts q with a force F when they are a distance D apart. If the left charge is increased in magnitude by a factor of 3.5 and the right charge is increased by a factor of 2.5, by what factor do you need to increase the distance between the two charges to maintain the same force between them (i.e., still F)?
