Final answer:

Using Coulomb's law, the electrostatic force (F) with given charges q1 = 10, q2 = 5, and distance d = 10, is calculated to be 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to finding the value of the electrostatic force (F) between two point charges, using Coulomb's law, which is described by the equation F = (q1 * q2) / d², where q1 and q2 are the magnitudes of the charges and d is the distance between the charges.

Given the values q1 = 10, q2 = 5, and d = 10, substituting these into the equation we get:

F = (10 * 5) / 10² = 50 / 100 = 0.5

So, the value of F is 0.5 in the units defined by the constants and units used for the charges and distance.
