Is there a ready made function to calculate the (shortest) distance 
between two objects?
I trying to create force fields to the objects that are extremely distance 
dependent
(electrostatic and van Der Walls) so I need know the shortest distance 
between two objects
and use this information to calculate the force if the objects are closer 
than a given value.
