The electrical force between two charged objects is described by Coulomb's Law, which states that the force \( F \) between two charges \( q_1 \) and \( q_2 \) is inversely proportional to the square of the distance \( r \) between them. This means that as the distance increases, the force decreases sharply.
Thus, the correct statement is: It is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
