Object A has a charge of –1 Coulomb. At a given distance, the object with which charge would be most strongly attracted by object A?
A. +2 C
B. +1 C
C. –2 C
D. –1 C
Object A has a negative charge, which means it has an excess of electrons. When two charged objects interact, opposite charges attract each other, and objects with the same charge repel each other.
Therefore, object A would be most strongly attracted to an object with a positive charge (+).
Among the given options, the object with the charge that would most strongly attract object A is option B. So the correct answer is B. +1 C.
