27
Q

Similarities of Coulumb’s law and Newtons Law

A
  • Follow the inverse square law for distance.
  • Are also proportional to the product of the quantity that causes the force (mass and charge).
  • Are conservative and nonconstant.
28
Q

Difference of Coulumb’s law and Newtons Law

A
  • Gravitational force is only an attractive force, while the electric force maybe attractive or repulsive.
  • The gravitational force, in general, is much weaker.
