  1. the force obeys an inverse square law. if the distance is doubled the force is 1/4. 1/ (2x2). if the distance is trippled the force is 1/9. 1/ (3x3). if the distance is ten times then the force is one hundredth 1/ (10x10). hope this helps.


  2. It decreases to quarter of what it was before. The relationship is force is proportional to the inverse of the square of the separation.
