उत्तर
Given:
q1 = q2 = q = 1.0 C
Distance between the charges, r = 2 km = 2 × 103 m
By Coulomb's Law, electrostatic force,
\[ = 2 . 25 \times {10}^3 N\]
Let my mass, m, be 50 kg.
Weight of my body, W = mg
⇒ W = 50 × 10 N = 500 N
Now,
So, the force between the charges is 4.5 times the weight of my body.
