Answer:
The correct option is (d). "3x stronger".
Explanation:
The force between two charged particle is given by :
[tex]F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]
If one charge is tripled, [tex]q_1'=3q[/tex]
New force will be :
[tex]F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2}{r^2}\\\\=3\times F[/tex]
It means if one of the charges were to triple in strength, then the force will become 3 times of the initial force.
