May i request for 2D simulation that have the purpose of showing theoretical predictions from Coulomb's law ( recall and use Coulomb's law in the form F = Q1Q2/4πε_or ^2 for the force between two point charges in free space or air), please? I would like all parameters to be changed. I would like F to be calculate. Unit of Q in C, unit of r in m, unit of ε_o in Fm^-1 & unit of F in N. Thank you so much

What you need is a calculator.
Coulomb can be expressed as $\vec{F}=\frac{KQ_1Q_2}{r^2} \hat{r}$
where $K=9\times 10^9$.

What you want is not realistic.
For example: It is not easy to accumuate charge as at one point with charge 1C.
If there are two charge both are 1C and separate by 1m, the force between them is $9\times 10^9N$
,which is also like the weight of mass=$9\times 10^8 kg$.  This is not realistic. There is no way you can hold those two chartge at fix 1m distance.

I do not understand what is the purpose of your request?
If you just need to practice the calculation, you should just use a calculator.

What you want user to be able to do with it and what you hope user can learn from it?
Are you a teacher? Could you shom me what might be the worksheet or learning activities look like?

If I can fully understand what you really want, I would be able to produce simulations really fit with what you need.

Hi Rare,
maybe u need this applet as the base for your request.
so now you can add the forces on the 2 charges?
is this what you want?
