"the quadratic force of static charges"
I think that's just Coulomb's Law, F = K(Q1*Q2)/r^2, where K is a constant, Q1 and Q2 are the charges on two objects, and r is the distance between them. It's just an analog of the equation for the force of gravity, also called an inverse square law. I remember that from freshman physics at a good liberal arts college. But I am going only on a 45-year-old memory, not Google or Wiki.
