The three laws of electric charges are that like charges repel, unlike charges attract and that charged objects can be attracted to neutral objects. This means that two objects with the same charge push away from each other, while two objects with opposite charges pull towards each other.

The force exerted between 2 point charges is directly proportional to the product of their strengths, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them and is inversely proportional to the absolute permittivity of the surrounding mediums.

I hope that helps somewhat, I'm only kind of sure that could be correct
