The direction of the electrostatic force on the second charge (charge 2) will be away from the first charge (charge 1).
The electrostatic force between the two charges is determined with Coulomb's law;
F = kq²/r²
F = (9 x 10⁹ x 0.0008²)/(2)²
F = 1,440 N
Since the two charges are the same (positive), the direction of the electrostatic force on the second charge (charge 2) will be away from the first charge (charge 1).
