Force between the two charges is independent of the charges in its surroundings.

Q. Two charges $q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ repell each other with a force of 0.1 N. The force exerted by $q_{1}$ on $q_{2}$ , when a third charge is placed near them will be

Less than 0.1 N

More than 0.1 N

0.1 N

Less than 0.1 N if $q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ are similar and more than 0.1 N if $q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ are dissimilar

Q. Two charges q1​ and q2​ repell each other with a force of 0.1 N. The force exerted by q1​on q2​ , when a third charge is placed near them will be

Less than 0.1 N

More than 0.1 N

0.1 N

Less than 0.1 N if q1​ and q2​ are similar and more than 0.1 N if q1​ and q2​ are dissimilar
