Given data:
* The electrostatic force of repulsion between the charged bodies in the initial state is,
* The distance between the charged bodies in the initial state is,
* The distance between the charged bodies in the final state is,
Solution:
According to Coulomb's law, the electrostatic force of repulsion between the charged bodies in the initial state is,
where k is the electrostatic force constant, q_1 is the charge on the first charged body and q_2 is the charge on the second charged body,
The electrostatic force of repulsion between the charged bodies in the final state is,
Substituting the known values,
Thus, the electrostatic force of repulsion between the charged bodies in the final state is,
