Consider the model above. It represents the electrical force. As r increases, the attractive force decreases. How would this model
compare to a model for the force of gravity?
A)
The models would be the same. Both forces are the result of distance,
mass, and charge.
B)
There would be no way to compare the two forces as they deal with
different types of particles. Gravity is mass-based and the electrical force
is charge-based
The model of the gravitational force would be the same but without the
charges. Gravity is always attractive, but electrical force can be attractive
or repulsive.
The model of the gravitational force would vary because it does not vary
with changes in the distance between two objects. Gravity is always an
attractive force, based solely on mass.
D)
