To solve the problem of maximizing the electrostatic force between two parts of a charge \( Q \) that is divided into two parts, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a total charge \( Q \) which is divided into two parts: \( q_1 \) and \( q_2 \). The force \( F \) between these two charges when they are separated by a distance \( d \) is given by Coulomb's law: \[ F = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2} \] ...
