Solution

The correct option is A $q_{1} q_{2} < 0$
According to Coulomb's law, ${\to F}_{12} = - {\to F}_{21}$

There is a force of attraction and the charge must be unlike charge.

and we know that $F = \frac{q_{1} q_{2}}{4 π ε_{0} r^{2}}$

For attractive force, $q_{1} q_{2} < 0$

$q_{1} = +$

$q_{2} = -$

$q_{1} q_{2} < 0$

The correct option is A.
