My friend from school enlightened me on this matter and it is properly performed with algebraic physics as follows.
F=(kq_1q_2)/r^2
K=(1/4piE_o) when E_0=8.85e-12
F=[(K(1.6e-6)^20/(0.1^2)]
F=2.302
F=k_spx^2
K=(f/x^2)
K=(2.302/0.0025)
K=920.8
yay
Sorry for all of the confusion.
Simplify simply means to change the form of the problem to a more "simplified state"...in my class any how.
As you can see I am quite elementary in my trigonometry...however I did manage to simplify the problem...when I have my work with me I might post how...
That sounds like a fantastic idea. However, with my lack of knowledge in calculus and the limitations of algebra, I cannot find the EPE. It is not given in the problem. In algebra we only know EPE to be EPE=qV...the voltage is not given in the problem.
In addition, this chapter of which the...

Two spheres are mounted on identical horizontal springs and rest on a frcionless table, as in the drawing. When the spheres are uncharged, the spacing between them is 0.0500 m, and the springs are unrestrained. When each sphere has a charge of +1.60 microC, the spacing...
