This is not a question of 'how' to do a problem; I know the answer to it and would like an explanation of why this is the correct answer, if possible! Thanks in advance!
Suppose there exists another universe where the laws of electrostatics and special relativity and the relevant physical constants are the same with one exception: the speed of light is much greater than 3x10^8 m/s. Which of the following things are true?
a.)gravitational acceleration of objects would be faster in the other universe than ours
b.) electric field in between plates of a parallel plate capacitor would be weaker in the other universe than in our own
c.) electric field in between plates of a parallel plate capacitor would be stronger in the other universe than in our own
d.) magnetic field produced by a current carrying wire would be weaker in the other universe than in our own
e.) magnetic field produced by a current carrying wire would be stronger in the other universe than in our own
The listed answer is D, but I don't see why B wouldn't work as well?
Thanks again! :)
