Coulombs law and particle charges

[ajd]

Homework Statement

An electron and another particle experience an attractive force of 0.0096 N when they are 0.001m apart. what is the charge of the other particle
q1= -1.602E-19
F=-0.0096
r=0.001
2. Relevant equation
how do you find q2 out to solve the equation

The Attempt at a Solution

 

[Molar]

What do you think, what kind of force is working between the two charges ?

You yourself have said about the law, just find out its mathematical form and then you can solve it easily.
