To solve the problem, we will use the principle of conservation of energy. The initial potential energy of the system will be converted into kinetic energy when the particles are far apart. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Charge of each particle, \( q = 2.0 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{C} \) - Mass of each particle, \( m = 10 \, \text{g} = 10 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{kg} = 0.01 \, \text{kg} \) - Initial separation, \( r = 10 \, \text{cm} = 10 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{m} = 0.1 \, \text{m} \) ### Step 2: Calculate the initial potential energy ...
