The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to establish the relationship between the force in air (F_A) and the force in a medium (F_M) given that the dielectric constant (K) is equal to 2. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Forces**: - The force between two charges in a vacuum (or air) is given by Coulomb's law: \[ F_A = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2} \] - In a medium with a dielectric constant K, the force is modified to: \[ F_M = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 K} \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2} \] 2. **Substituting K**: - Given that K = 2, we can substitute this value into the equation for the force in the medium: \[ F_M = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 \cdot 2} \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2} \] 3. **Finding the Ratio of Forces**: - To find the relationship between the forces in air and in the medium, we take the ratio \( \frac{F_A}{F_M} \): \[ \frac{F_A}{F_M} = \frac{\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}}{\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 \cdot 2} \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}} \] 4. **Simplifying the Ratio**: - The \( \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} \) and \( \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2} \) terms cancel out: \[ \frac{F_A}{F_M} = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}} = 2 \] 5. **Final Relationship**: - This means that: \[ F_A = 2 F_M \] - Therefore, the force in air is twice the force in the medium. ### Conclusion: The relationship between the force in air (F_A) and the force in the medium (F_M) when K = 2 is: \[ F_A = 2 F_M \]

To solve the problem, we need to establish the relationship between the force in air (F_A) and the force in a medium (F_M) given that the dielectric constant (K) is equal to 2. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Forces**: - The force between two charges in a vacuum (or air) is given by Coulomb's law: \[ F_A = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2} ...
