MCQ
Which one of the following is similar between electrostatic force and gravitational force?
  • A
    Force can be attractive or repulsive.
  • B
    The force depends on the medium between the bodies.
  • C
    Both the forces are strong forces.
  • Force is inversely proportional to the distance between the bodies.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Force is inversely proportional to the distance between the bodies.

Gravitational force cannot be repulsive and it is a very weak force. Gravitational force does not depend on the medium. But both the forces are inversely proportional to the distance between them.
