Like charges repel and unlike charges attract. Coulomb’s law states that the force F of attraction or repulsion between two char
ges, q1 and q2 is given by F= kq1q2/f^2, where k is constant and r is the distance between the positive charges. Suppose you were to graph F as a function of r for two positive charges

Step-by-step explanation:
The electrical force between two unlike charge is given by :
k is electrostatic constant
q₁ and q₂ are two charges
r is the distance between charges
It is clear that the electric force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
The graph F as a function of r for two positive charges is shown in the attached figure. It is a hyperbola.
