The correct equation for calculating the electrical force \( F_e \) between two charges \( q_1 \) and \( q_2 \) is given by Coulomb's law:
\[
F_e = k \frac{q_1 \times q_2}{d^2}
\]
Where:
- \( F_e \) is the electrical force between the charges,
- \( k \) is Coulomb's constant (approximately \( 8.99 \times 10^9 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}^2 \)),
- \( q_1 \) and \( q_2 \) are the magnitudes of the two charges,
- \( d \) is the distance between the centers of the two charges.
Thus, the correct option is:
\[
F_e = k \frac{q_1 \times q_2}{d^2}
\]
\[
F_e = k \frac{q_1 \times q_2}{d^2}
\]
