Question

How is force inversely proportional to distance squared?

Answer 1

Force:

A push or pull that an object experiences as a result of interacting with another item is known as a force.

1. The forces radiate uniformly from the point source in all directions.
2. Over the entire surface circumference of the point object, it upholds the rule of conservation of energy.
3. It is surrounded by a sphere-shaped surface.
4. $r$ is the radius of the sphere that is used as the distance, and it is this radius that determines the sphere's surface area.
5. Therefore, as the square of the distance, the force decreases.

Thus, force is inversely proportional to distance squared.
