The magnitude of the force is linearly proportional to the net charge on each object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. (Interestingly, the force does not depend on the mass of the objects.) The direction of the force vector is along the imaginary line joining the two objects and is dictated by the signs of the charges.

Object A has a positive charge of 6.0×10−6C. Object B has a positive charge of 3.0×10−6C. If the distance between A and B is 0.030 m, what is the force on A?

There are two kinds of charge, positive “+” and negative “-”. An object can have positive charge, negative charge, or no charge at all. A particle which has charge causes a force-per-charge-of-would-be-victim vector to exist at each point in the region of space around itself.

The electric field only depends on the configuration and size of the source charges. Once the electric field is found, it allows us to calculate the force on any test charge. The electric force between two point charges is described by Coulomb's Law.
