The magnitude of the force<span> a 1.5 x 10-3 C charge exerts on a 3.2 x 10-4 C charge located 1.5 m away is 1920 Newtons. The formula used to solve this problem is:
F = kq1q2/r^2
where: F = Electric force, Newtons k = Coulomb's constant, 9x10^9 Nm^2/C^2 q1 = point charge 1, C q2 = point charge 2, C r = distance between charges, meters
Using direct substitution, the force F is determined to be 1920 Newtons.</span>
