Answer:

7.12 mm

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

F = kqq'/r².................... Equation 1

Where F = force, k = proportionality constant, q and q' = The two point charges, r = distance between the two charges.

Make r the subject of the equation,

r = √(kqq'/F).......................... Equation 2

Given: q = q' = 75.0 nC = 75×10⁻⁹ C, F = 1.00 N

Constant: k = 9.0×10⁹ Nm²/C².

Substitute into equation 2

r = √[ (75×10⁻⁹ )²9.0×10⁹/1]

r = 75×10⁻⁹.√(9.0×10⁹)

r = (75×10⁻⁹)(9.49×10⁴)

r = 711.75×10⁻⁵

r = 7.12×10⁻³ m

r = 7.12 mm

Hence the distance between the point charge = 7.12 mm

The two point charges must be at a distance = 7.12 mm

The electrostatic force due to point charges is given by the Coulomb's law which is represented by t he equation (1)

[tex]F = k \times q_1\times q_2 /r^2 \\[/tex]........(1)

Where F = magnitude of electrostatic force in N.

k =  Coulomb's Constant = 9 [tex]\times[/tex] 10^9 N⋅m^2/C^−2

r = Distance between the point charges  in m.

[tex]q_1[/tex] and [tex]q_2[/tex]  are the magnitude of point charges in C.

Given that

[tex]q_1[/tex] =[tex]q_2[/tex] = 75.0 nC = [tex]75\times10^{-9}\; C[/tex]

Electrostatic Force F = 1 N

Putting the values in equation (1) we get

1 = 9[tex]\times[/tex] 10^9

solving for r gives us

r = 0.0007115 m [tex]\approx[/tex] 7.12 mm
