The force between two charges is 1000 N. One charge is [tex]2 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{C}[/tex], and the other charge is [tex]5 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C}[/tex]. What is the distance between them?

Asked by ShantellLesch

Answer (2)

The distance between the charges is calculated using Coulomb's Law and found to be 0.134m or 13.4 cm. ;

By using Coulomb's Law, we calculated the distance between the two charges to be approximately 0.03 m or 3.0 cm. We utilized the formula F = k r 2 ∣ q 1 ​ q 2 ​ ∣ ​ and rearranged it to find r . Plugging in the given values allowed us to solve for the distance accurately.
