Distinguish between Coulomb force and gravitational force
Answers
Explanation:
1) The gravitational force between two masses is always attractive but Coulomb force between two charges can be attractive or repulsive, depending on the nature of charges. 2) The value of the gravitational constant G=6.626×10-11Nm2kg-2.

Explanation:
They both act between two bodies without any means of contact. However gravitational force acts on mass while the electric force acts on charge. Gravitational force are only attractive while electric field can be attractive/repulsive. Electric field is much stronger than gravitational field.
Similarities between coulomb's force and gravitational force
Both Forces coulomb's and gravitational are inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. Both forces are central forces. Both forces are conservative forces. Both forces can be calculated even in vaccum.
What are the differences between Coulomb force and gravitational force? 1) The gravitational force between two masses is always attractive but Coulomb force between two charges can be attractive or repulsive, depending on the nature of charges. 2) The value of the gravitational constant G=6.626×10-11Nm2kg-2.
