Pretty much.
To calculate the electrical force Fe, one can use the equation...
Fe = k(q1 * q2)/r^2
Where k is the constant 8.988 * 10^9 , q1 and q2 are the two charged objects (an object without an electrical charge will not experience an electrical force), and r^2 is the square of the distance between them.
Now, the direction of the force is dependent on the polarity of the charges! Like charges cause acceleration in the opposite direction: unlike charges cause acceleration toward each other, and, subsequently, the force increases.
One can also consider the force Fe in terms of an electric field E, in which
Fe = Eq
Thus: an object of charge q will experience a force Fe in relation to its exposure to the field E.
Now, units are important!
Fe is in Newtons: that means, if an object undergoes force Fe, it will accelerate in relation to its mass.
The "q"s are always in coulombs, or measures of electric charge.
K and E are compound--their "units" are made up of other units multiplied together.
Don't worry too much about units, unless you're getting really technical. Just know that the electrical force is the result of two charged particles interacting. =]

Type of force between charged objects?
Electric Force is the force between charged objects.
The electric force between two charged objects is influenced by?
The electric force between two charged objects is influenced by the distance between them.
A charged object exerts what on other charged objects?
Either an attractive or repelling electrical force. It depends on what the charges of the objects are.
The force between charged objects is a?
electric force.
What is an electrical property of matter that creates a force between objects?
electrical force
The smaller the distance between the objects the stronger?
... the gravitational force between them, and the electrical force if the objects are charged.
What is the meaning of electric force?
Electrical force means : The force between charged objects .
Type of force between charged objects?
Electric Force is the force between charged objects.
The electric force between two charged objects is influenced by?
The electric force between two charged objects is influenced by the distance between them.
A charged object exerts what on other charged objects?
Either an attractive or repelling electrical force. It depends on what the charges of the objects are.
The force between charged objects is a?
electric force.
Describe the relationship of electrostatic force between two charged objects?
The electrostatic force between two charged objects is inversely proportional to the distance of separation between the two objects. An Increase in the separation distance between objects decreases the force of attraction or repulsion between the objects.
What is an electrical property of matter that creates a force between objects?
electrical force
Which action produces a decrease in both the electrical force and gravitational force between 2 charged objects?
Move the objects farther apart, f= k/r2 df= -2k/r3 dr
What is the force between electrically charged objects?
static
Coulumbs law states that?
Coulombs law states that the electrical force between two charged objects is directionally proportional to the quantity of charge on the objects and inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two objects.
What force is the force between charged objects?
Its called electro-static force. It is inversely proportional to the distance between the 2 objects squared.
