Answer:
5.619×10⁶ N
Explanation:
Applying,
F = kqq'/r²................... Equation 1
Where F = electrostatic force between the charges, k = coulomb's constant, q = first charge, q' = second charge, r = distance btween the charges
From the questiion,
Given: q = 2.5 C, q' = 2.5 C, r = 100 m
Constant: 8.99×10⁹ Nm²/C²
Substitute these values into equation 1
F = (2.5×2.5×8.99×10⁹)/100²
F = 56.19×10⁵
F = 5.619×10⁶ N
