Question

- What's the correct answer?

-A short explanation of how to reach the correct answer for this question.

- What concrete steps you can take in the future to avoid making the same or similar mistakes. These steps may be physics related (e.g. "I neglected the sign of one of the charges so in the future I will highlight the signs of charges in the problem") or related to general test-taking (e.g. "I misinterpreted what the question was asking so in the future I will draw sketches for every question to make sure I understand what I'm being asked").

If the charge of one of two particles is doubled and the separation between them is also doubled, the
force exerted between the two particles is
quartered.
O halved.
the same as before.
doubled.
O quadrupled.
