Two point charges placed in a medium of ...

Two point charges placed in a medium of dielectric constant 5 are at a distance r between them, experience an electrostatic force ‘F’. The electrostatic force between them in vacuum at the same distance r will be-

A

`(F)/(5)`

B

F

C

5F

D

`(F)/(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
As we know the relation
`(F_(n))/(F_(m))=KrArrF_(m)=(F)/(5)`
