II) Choose the correct
1) Two particles, X and Y, are 4m apart. X has a charge of 2Q and Y has a charge of Q. The
force of X on Y:
A. has twice the magnitude of the force of Y on X
B. has half the magnitude of the force of Y on X
C. has four times the magnitude of the force of Y on X
D. has one-fourth the magnitude of the force of Y on X
E. has the same magnitude as the force of Y on X

E. has the same magnitude as the force of Y on X

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action force), object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (reaction force)"

In this problem, we can identify:

- Particle X as object A

- Particle Y as object B

Therefore:

- The force exerted by particle X on particle Y is the action force

- The force exerted by particle Y on particle X is the reaction force

And so, according to Newton's third law, the two forces have same magnitude and opposite direction.

i believe the answer is a

the answer is b ) square root of 5
