Se tienen dos cargas positivas, 2(C) y 5(C), separadas a una distancia de 20[cm] en el vacío. ¿Cuál es el valor del módulo de la fuerza electrostática entre ellas?

Force,

Explanation:

There are two positive charges, 2 C and 5 C, separated by a distance of 20 cm in a vacuum. What is the value of the modulus of the electrostatic force between them?

We have,

Charge on object 1, q₁ = 2 C

Charge on object 2, q₂ = 5 C

Distance between charges, r = 20 cm = 0.02 m

The electric force between two charges is given by the formula as follows :

Plugging all the values we get :

So, the electric force between two charges is .
