Description
This formula calculates the force between two electric charges. The force (F) depends on a constant (k), the values of the two charges (Q1 and Q2), and the distance (d) between them. Specifically, the force is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and the constant, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance separating them. In this case, k is 1, Q1 is 2 coulombs, Q2 is 3 coulombs, and the distance d is 2 meters.
Formula
F=k x Q1 x Q2/d2
