The Coulomb or Coulomb’s inverse-square law describes the electrostatic interaction between electrically charged particles. Analogous to the inverse-square law of universal gravitation by Isaac Newton and is used to derive Gauss’s law, and vice versa. This law states: The magnitude of the electrostatic force of interaction between two point charges is directly proportional to the scalar multiplication of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The force is along the straight line joining them. If the two charges have the same sign, the electrostatic force between them is repulsive; if they have different signs, the force between them is attractive. Coulomb’s law can also be stated as a simple mathematical expression. The scalar and vector forms of the mathematical equations are:

where the Coulomb’s constant (ke=8.9875517873681764 x 109Nm2C2), q1 and q2 are the signed magnitudes of the charges, the scalar r is the distance between the charges, the vector r21=r1r2 is the vectorial distance between the charges, and ˆr21=r21/|r21| (a vector unit vector pointing from q2 to q1). The vector form of the equation calculates the force F1 applied on q1 by q2. If r21 is used instead, then the effect on q2 can be found. It can be also calculated using Newton’s third law: F2=F1.
