I assuming you are meaning the potential difference of an electrical charge. Matter is made up of atoms, which contain protons and electrons. Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge. The 'separation' is that one side has a different ratio of protons/electron charge to that of the other side. The difference is measured in volts, and when connected together using conductive material will cause the radios to become more equal, this causes a current, which is measured in amps.

Who discovered a relationship between charges their separation and the force between the two charges?
Charles Augustin de Coulomb (1736 - 1806) did, in 1785 .
What is a Bjerrum length?
A Bjerrum length is the separation at which the electrostatic interaction between two elementary charges is comparable in magnitude to the thermal energy scale.
How does voltage gradient affect separation of charged particles in an electric field?
There is a direct relationship between the voltage gradient of an electric field and the separation of the charges. Higher voltage gradients will separate charges farther.
What two factors determine the amount of electric force between two objects?
The product of the two charges and the distance between the charges.
What is an electrostatic force of repulsion?
That's the force of repulsion between two positive charges; or between two negative charges.

What is the separation between two equal charges if force between them is equal two the weight of a 50 kg person?
That's going to depend on the magnitude of the charges. You've said that they're equal, and that's appreciated although unnecessary. But we still need a number.
What is a Bjerrum length?
A Bjerrum length is the separation at which the electrostatic interaction between two elementary charges is comparable in magnitude to the thermal energy scale.
When a charged object polarized another why is there an attraction between the object?
The charged body will induce a separation of charges in the uncharged body.The charged body will induce a separation of charges in the uncharged body.The charged body will induce a separation of charges in the uncharged body.The charged body will induce a separation of charges in the uncharged body.

Offer a rationalization why the Bjerrum length is inversely porportional to temperature?
The Bjerrum length is the separation distance at which the potential electric energy of two elementary charges is equal to kB*T. The electric potential energy of two elementary charges is inversely proportional to their separation distance. Since kB*T is trivially proportional to temperature T, at a higher temperature you need to place two elementary charges closer to each other to get the electric potential energy equal to kB*T. As the separation distance between those charges is defined as the Bjerrum length, the Bjerrum length is inversely proportional to temperature.

What two factors determine the amount of electric force between two objects?
The product of the two charges and the distance between the charges.
Can The attractive force between two unlike charges has the same strength as the repulsive force between two like charges?
Yes if the quantities of the charges are unchanged.
What is an electrostatic force of repulsion?
That's the force of repulsion between two positive charges; or between two negative charges.
Coulumbs law states that?
Coulomb's law states that the force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Mathematically, it is represented as F = k * (q1 * q2) / r^2, where F is the force, k is the proportionality constant, q1 and q2 are the charges, and r is the distance between the charges.
How much potential difference is there between two identical charges?
There is no potential difference between identical charges
