Question

what is the solution to this problem? A charge of 3.75 X10-9 C is located 3.2 m from a charge of -2.65 X 10-9 C. Find themagnitude of the electrostatic force exerted by one charge on theother.
N
The Moon and Earth are bound together by gravity. If, instead, theforce of attraction were the result of each having a charge of thesame magnitude but opposite in sign, find the quantity of chargethat would have to be placed on each to produce the requiredforce.

Explanation / Answer

Here both charges are opposite charges, so there will be aforce of attraction betweeen them. Now the electrostatic force ofattraction between these two charges is given by                 F =(9.0*109N.m2/C2)(q1q2)/ (d2) Here q1 = 3.75 X10-9 C         q2= 2.65 X 10-9 C          d =3.2m DO the calculation work.
