Charles Augustin de Coulomb is credited with the discovery of the inverse square law. It was used by Isaac Newton in his prismatic experiments.
The law is called The Inverse Square Law .
The law is that the attraction between electric charges is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Note that the way the force varies with distance is identical to the gravitational force, which also follows an inverse-square law.

The inverse square law.
The concept of inverse square law was developed by Isaac Newton in the late 17th century. Newton formulated the law to describe the intensity of gravitational force, stating that the force between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This concept of inverse square law is also applicable to other physical phenomena, such as light and sound.
Yes. Both.
The inverse-square law applies to gravitational and electrical forces. An inverse-square law tells you:That the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.That means that if the distance is increased by a factor "n", the force is decreased by a factor "n2".For example, if you increase the distance by a factor of 10, the force will decrease by a factor of 102 = 10 x 10 = 100.
Both are 'Inverse square' forces, f=k/r2 .
Gravity doesn't decrease. It follows the same simple mathematical formula at all distances.The mutual gravitational force of attraction between two mass objects decreases according tothe inverse square law.
Square root is the inverse operation of a square.
