The electric potential energy of given configuration of charges is defined as the work which must be done against the Coulomb force to rearrange charges from infinite separation to this configuration (or the work done by the Coulomb force separating the charges from this configuration to infinity). For two point-like charges Q1 and Q2 at a distance r this work, and hence electric potential energy is equal to:
E_mathrm{p,e} = frac{1}{{4piepsilon_0}}{{Q_1Q_2}over{r}}
============================================
Yes, yes, undoubtedly correct. But what is an electrostatic force ?
Atraction between two opposite forces
electrostatic force is the force between the two opposite charges where as the electromagnetic force is movement of electrons
Gravitational force.
Electrostatic force is a term specifically applied to a situation arising from one of the fundamental forces more properly referred to as the electromagnetic force. You might say electrostatic phenomena or interactions are governed by the electromagnetic force.
non-contact
Electrostatic force IS stronger than gravitational force because the electrostatic force between a charged straw (which has been rubbed with a cloth) can defy gravity and stick to the ceiling.
Electrostatic Force are non-contact force.
Electrostatic Force are non-contact force.

There are only two forces that act at a distance:gravity, andelectromagnetism.Magnetic fields are sometimes referred to as a third force, however magnetism and electrostatic forces are both examples the electromagnetic force.

There isn't any such force. Charges are not caused by force. However, the "Electrostatic Force" is caused by the separation of charges.

It is the force of electrostatic repulsion.
The cause is the electrostatic force.
It is a total sum of all electrostatic forces acting upon an object.
