Worksheet for this simulation

In this simulation, you can investigate the force exerted by one charged particle on another, and how that force varies with the distance between the particles. The graph shows the force exerted on the movable charge, which is the one on the right. A force to the right on the movable charge is shown as positive on the graph; a force to the left on the movable charge is shown as negative.
