Distance of Closest Approach Between Two Charges

In summary, when the charge ##q_1## comes closer to the charge ##q_0## due to the repulsion between them, their paths will be deviated and the distance of closest approach will be at a position where the velocity vector of the charge ##q_2## will be at right angle to the line joining ##q_1## and ##q_2##.
