    Answer:

    5N

    Explanation:

    The formula formula for calculating the force between charges is expressed as;

    F = kq1q2/r²

    If two charges are separated by a distance r and a force between  them is 45N, then;

    45 = kq1q2/r² ….1

    If the distance between the charges is tripled to 3r, then;

    F = kq1q2/(3r)²

    F = kq1q2/9r² … 2

    Divide both expressions

    45/F = (kq1q2/r²)/(kq1q2/9r²)

    45/F = kq1q2/r² * 9r²/kq1q2

    45/F = 9

    9F = 45

    F = 45/9

    F = 5N

    Hence the new force between them will be 5N
