by how many times occur in the force of attraction between two bodies change when the distance between then is reduced to one third

The force is now 9 times the original force

Explanation:

Coulomb's Law

The electrostatic force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Coulomb's formula is:

Where:

q1, q2 = the particles' charge

d= The distance between the particles

Suppose the distance is reduced to d'=d/3, the new force F' is:

The force is now 9 times the original force

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
