Homework Statement



Rearrange F=Kq1q2/r^2 to make K the subject

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



K=Fr^2/q1q2 - is this correct? Sorry I am new to this! Thanks :)

Yes, that's correct.
 
Fab thanks - should have more faith!
 
If you want to check your answer, just make up values for k, q1, q2, and r and find F. Then use that F along with the same values for q1, q2, and r and see if you get what you assigned to k originally.
