Hello,
This question can be solved using coulombs law.
Coulombs law states the force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.
So if the distance is doubled then the force would decrease 4 times.
So the new force would be 120/4=30 Newton.

Good luck
