No, greater mass equates to greater surface area and therefore greater electron-charge storage potential.

Is an electrostatic force stronger or weaker close to the charge?

Electrostatric force on a test charge is stronger when it's closer to another charge. In exactly the same way, mathematically, that the gravitational force on a test mass is stronger when it's closer to another mass. And in exactly the same ratio.


Is gravitational force is charge independent?

Yes. Gravitational force is proportional to the mass of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Charge does not enter into the picture.


What will the force of attraction be if the distnace between theses two masses is tripled?

Even if it is the electrostatic force or gravitational force, I have F=constant*(mass or charge 1)(mass or charge 2)/radius^2. If the distance is tripled, then r is equal to 3. Let us say that mass or charge 1 and mass or charge 2 and the constant is 1. Forgetting the units, F=(1*1*1)/(3^2) which equals F=1/9. Therefore, the force of attraction will be reduced to 1/9 of its original strength if the distance between the two is tripled.


What is the independent controlled and dependent variable of how mass effects the force of friction?

The independent variable is mass. The dependent variable is the frictional force.


What is the difference between electrostatic and static electricity?

Zero.


Is the force of gravity on an object independent or dependent to the object's mass?

Independent


Is the measure of the force of gravity on an object's mass?

No. Mass, as a quantity, is independent of gravity.


What force pulls objects together?

The force of gravity and electrostatic force both pulls things together!!! But gravity acts only on one large mass and another with small mass. Electrostatic is very powerful it can attract as well as repel. The answer is that:- Most powerful :- ELECTROSTATIC Less powerful :- Gravity


On what does electric force depend that is analogous to mass in gravitational force?

Electric charge


What is invariance of charge?

Invariance of charge refers to the independence of electrostatic potential of a particle from its speed. That is, the charge of a particle does not vary with its speed. In other words charge is not relativistic as opposed to relativistic quantities such as mass, energy etc.


How are volume and mass the same?

They're not. Weight is the force produced on a mass by gravity. Volume is totally independent.
