- Figure shows variation of Coulomb force (F) acting between two point charges with \( \frac{1}{r^2} \), \( r \) being the separation between the two charges \( (q_1, q_2) \) and \( (q_2, q_3) \). If \( q_2 \) is positive and least in magnitude, then the magnitudes of \( q_1, q_2 \), and \( q_3 \) are such that:
