Answer 1

The two objects both have a charge of +1 C. Like charges repel each other, so the type of force between the two objects will be repulsive.

Since they are relatively close (10 mm apart) and both have a significant charge, the force will be strong.

Therefore, the correct response is:

repulsive, strong
