B)The electrical force experienced by the hydrogen nucleus is to the right, and the magnitude is equal to the force exerted on the carbon nucleus.

A hydrogen nucleus, which has a charge e, is situated to the left of a carbon nucleus, which has a charge 6e. Which statement is true? A)The electrical force experienced by the hydrogen nucleus is to the left, and the magnitude is equal to the force exerted on the carbon nucleus. B)The electrical force experienced by the hydrogen nucleus is to the right, and the magnitude is equal to the force exerted on the carbon nucleus. C)The electrical force experienced by the hydrogen nucleus is to the left, and the magnitude is less than the force exerted on the carbon nucleus. D)The electrical force experienced by the hydrogen nucleus is to the left, and the magnitude is greater than the force exerted on the carbon nucleus.

A

the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force on each ball. Suppose the charge on the left ball is now doubled (represented by two plus signs). Which diagram below best represents the forces that now act on the two balls?
