alleryAdding the forces from several charges one by one uses the principle of:
AQuantisation
BConservation
CPolarisation
DSuperposition
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Superposition
1. Each charge exerts its own force on the chosen one.
2. Those separate forces are added together as vectors.
3. That is the principle of superposition.
