Question
Is there any lower limit to the electric force between two particles placed at a separation of 1 cm?
Solution
Yes, there's a lower limit to the electric force between two particles placed at a separation of 1 cm, which is equal to the magnitude of force of repulsion between two electrons placed at a separation of 1 cm.
