+Description:
+Coulombs law states that the magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction
+or repulsion between two point charges is directly proportional to the product
+of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the
+distance between them.
+
+Coulomb studied the repulsive force between bodies having electrical charges
+of the same sign.
+
+F = k*q1*q2/r^2
+
+k is Coulomb's constant and equals 1/(4π*ε0).
+q1 is charge of first body (C)
+q2 is charge of second body (C)
+r is distance between two charged bodies (m)
