- (Figure 1) shows four electrical charges located at the corners of a rectangle. Like charges, you will recall, repel each other while opposite charges attract. Charge B exerts a repulsive force (directly away from B) on charge A of 3.0 N. Charge C exerts an attractive force (directly toward C) on charge A of 6.0 N. Finally, charge D exerts an attractive force of 2.0 N on charge A. 1. Assuming that forces are vectors, what is the magnitude of the net force F⃗ netF→net exerted on charge A?

Choose all that apply. Electric force is a contact force. Electric forces can only act between charged objects - either like-charged or oppositely-charged. Electric forces between two charged objects increases with increasing separation distance. Electric forces between two charged objects increases with increasing quantity of charge on the objects. If object A attracts object B with an electric force, then the attractive force must be mutual - i.e., object B also attracts object A with the same force. A doubling of the quantity of charge on one of the objects results in a doubling of the electric force. A tripling of the quantity of charge on both of the objects results in an increase in the electric force by a factor of 6. A doubling of the separation distance between two point charges results in a quadrupling of the electric force.
