(a) Force between the two charges
The electrostatic force between the two charges is given by:
where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 the two charges, r their separation.
In this problem:
Substituting into the equation, we find
(b) direction of particle q2
Particle q2 wants to move in the direction of the force acting on it. The direction of the force depends on the relative sign of the two charges: like charges attract each other, opposite charges repel each other. In this case, the two charges are both positive, so they repel each other and q2 tends to move away from particle q1.
In will most likely decrease its speed.
hope this helps.

The force f of the elevator on the man keeps reducing as the elevator keeps going up while the gravitational force mg keeps increasing moving upwards.
<h3>What is an elevator?</h3>
An elevator is an electrical device that lifts people up and down a tall building or structure.
for the elevator to go up, f > mg.
for the elevator to come down mg > f.
Analysis
since the force on the man is f = ma
where a is the acceleration of the elevator, then it means when a increases, f will increase and when it decreases, f would decrease. slowing down means a, is decreasing going up and this reduces the force as the elevator keeps going up.
on the other hand, gravity acts faster on bodies that are slower in motion so since g, increases going up, mg would also increase.
