Two charged objects are 1 meter apart. Calculate the magnitude of the electric force between them if the two charges are +1.0 μC and+1.0 μC. (1.0 μC equals 1.0×10⁻⁶)

0.00899 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charges is given by the equation:

where:

is the Coulomb's constant

are the charges

r is the distance between the two charges

And the force is:

- Repulsive if the two charges have same sign

- Attractive if the two charges have opposite sign

In this problem we have:

(charge of object 1)

(charge of object 2)

r = 1 m (separation between the objects)

So, the electric force is

i think it would be 5
