Question
State one factor on which the magnitude of a non-contact force depends. How does it depend on the factor stated by you?
✓
Answer
The magnitude of non-contact force on two bodies depends on the distance of separation between them. The force decreases as the distance of separation increases. The force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of separation.
