Question
Consider the following pairs of objects and determine if they would exert an attractive, a repulsive or no electrical force on each other. (Consider these objects to be point objects so that we can ignore any effects of polarization.)
Attractive Repulsive No Electrical Force A small positive point object and a small negative point object.
Attractive Repulsive No Electrical Force An electron and a neutron
Attractive Repulsive No Electrical Force An electron and a proton
Attractive Repulsive No Electrical Force A small positive point object and a small positive point object.
Attractive Repulsive No Electrical Force A small negative point object and a small neutral point object
Attractive Repulsive No Electrical Force An electron and an electron
Explanation / Answer
A small positive point object and a small negative point object - Attractive forces.
An electron and a neutron - No electrical force.
An electron and a proton - Attractive forces.
A small positive point object and a small positive point object - Repulsive force.
A small negative point object and a small neutral point object - No electrical force.
An electron and an electron - Repulsive force.
