Two point charges $+2 \ C$ and $+6 \ C$ separated by a distance '$r$' repel each other with a force of $18 \ N$. If a negative charge of $-4 \ C$ is added to each of these charges,then the force experienced by them is:

  • A
    $6 \ N$ (attractive)
  • B
    $12 \ N$ (attractive)
  • C
    $6 \ N$ (repulsive)
  • D
    $12 \ N$ (repulsive)

In one model of the electron,the electron of mass $m_e$ is thought to be a uniformly charged shell of radius $R$ and total charge $e$,whose electrostatic energy $E$ is equivalent to its mass $m_e$ via Einstein's mass-energy relation $E = m_e c^2$. In this model,$R$ is approximately ($m_e = 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$,$c = 3 \times 10^8 \, ms^{-1}$,$1 / 4 \pi \varepsilon_0 = 9 \times 10^9 \, Nm^2C^{-2}$,magnitude of the electron charge $e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, C$).
