Two particles are in a uniform electric field whose value is +2500 N/C. The mass and charge of particle 1 are m₁ = 1.36 × 105 kg and 91 -8.41 μC, while the corresponding values for particle 2 are m2 -2.01 x 105 kg and q2 +18.7 μC. Initially the particles are at rest. The particles are both located on the same electric field line but are separated from each other by a distance d. When released, they accelerate, but always remain at this same distance from each other. Find d. Number i Units
