How does the Coulombs Law Calculator work?

Input the magnitudes of two electric charges and the distance between them Then: The calculator applies F = k × |q₁ × q₂| / r² where k is Coulomb's constant Then: Results show the electrostatic force in Newtons.

Can you give an example of how to use the Coulombs Law Calculator?

Example: Input q₁ = 2 μC, q₂ = 3 μC, r = 0.5 m gives a result of F ≈ 0.216 N (Using k = 8.99 × 10⁹ N·m²/C²).

Is the Coulombs Law Calculator free to use?

Yes — completely free with no registration, download, or subscription required. All calculations happen instantly in your browser.

Distance (m)

Coulomb's Law quantifies the electrostatic force between two charged particles. It states that the force is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
