The electric force between two charged objects is determined by the nature of their charges: like charges repel each other while opposite charges attract. According to Coulomb's Law, the magnitude of the electric force is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This means that as the charges increase, the electric force increases, and as the distance increases, the electric force decreases.
