How does the coulomb force between the two point charges vary with the distance of separation between them?
Answers
Answer:
The electrical force between two charged objects is inversely related to the distance of separation between the two objects. Increasing the separation distance between objects decreases the force of attraction or repulsion between the objects. Electrostatic force and distance are inversely related.
So if distance increases 2 times, force reduces 4 times.

Explanation:
According to coulomb law : The magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction or repulsion between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of charges
F = q1q2/r²
if we take r as 2r
then the equation be:-
F = q1q2/(2r)² = q1q2/4r²
if r be 4r
F = q1q2/(4r)² = q1q2/16r²
be changing the value of r the distance may increase or decrease if it increase the force will decrease if r decrease force will increase
By this the F is vary by varying the r
