Three identical charges are placed on three vertices of a square. If the force acting between q_(1) and q_2 is F_(12) and between q_(1) and q_(3) is F_(13), then= ..........

Answer»

`1/SQRT(2)`
2
`1/2`
`sqrt(2)`

Solution :SUPPOSE the length of square is .a. and hence length of DIAGONAL is `sqrt(2a)`

`F_(12) = (k(q)(q))/a^(2) = (KQ^(2))/a^(2)` and `F_(13) = (k(q)(q))/(sqrt(2)a)^(2) = (kq^(2))/(2a^(2))`
`therefore F_(13)/F_(12) = 1/2`
