In the process of peppering the question with those forty (40 !) un-necessary quotation marks, you neglected to actually show us the illustration. So we have no information to describe the adjacent positions, and we're not able to come up with any answer to the question.
Complete question:
if two point charges are separated by 1.5 cm and have charge values of +2.0 and -4.0 μC, respectively, what is the value of the mutual force between them.
Answer:
The mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N
Explanation:
Given;
distance between the two point charges, r = 1.5 cm = 1.5 x 10⁻² m
value of the charges, q₁ and q₂ = 2 μC and - μ4 C
Apply Coulomb's law;
where;
F is the force of attraction between the two charges
|q₁| and |q₂| are the magnitude of the two charges
r is the distance between the two charges
k is Coulomb's constant = 8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²
Therefore, the mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N
