Two point charges of equal magnitude but opposite sign are placed at a certain distance. The force between them is $F$. If $75\%$ of the charge from one is transferred to the other,what will be the new force between them?

  • A
    $\frac{F}{16}$
  • B
    $\frac{9F}{16}$
  • C
    $F$
  • D
    $\frac{15F}{16}$
