INTRODUCTION
In physics, potential energy is the energy of interaction between electric charges. When the distance between two interacting charges changes, the potential energy between them also changes. Therefore, it is of interest to study the effect of the distance between two interacting charges on their potential energy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the distance between two interacting charges on their potential energy.
Methods
To investigate the effect of the distance between two interacting charges on their potential energy, we used numerical simulation methods. First, we assume that the two interacting charges are q1 and q2, and the distance between them is r. Then, we calculate the potential energy between them using the following equation:
U = k * q1 * q2 / r
where k is the universal gravitational constant, q1 and q2 are the values of the charges respectively, and r is the distance between them.
Next, we change the value of r and calculate the change in potential energy. Finally, we use graphs and data to visualize the results of the study.
Results
Through our study, we found that when the distance between two interacting charges becomes smaller, the potential energy between them increases. Conversely, when the distance between two interacting charges
