A balloon rubbed against denim gains a charge of -2.0 μC. What is the electric force between the balloon and the denim when the two are separated by a distance of 3.0 cm? (As- sume that the charges are located at a point.) The value of the Coulomb constant is 8.98755 × 10⁹ Nm²/C². Include direction of the force. Answer in units of N.
