Electric force can act at a distance, but is stronger when objects are closer.

the electric force is larger the closer the two objects are

The electric force varies with the distance between the charges. The closer they are, the stronger the force. The farther apart they are, the weaker the force.

Assuming you mean the force of gravity. As the distance increases, the force of gravity is reduced exponentially.

Double the distance between two bodies, the gravitational force is reduced four times.

I'm not sure what this question really means - should it be more like "what two things affect the force between two electric charges?" If this is correct then the answer is probably: 1. The amount of charges. 2. The distance between the charges.

How does distance and time affect the speed from object?

Distance and time do not, in general, affect the speed. Speed, however, can affect distance or time. Distance is directly proportional to speed, time is inversely proportional.


How does distance and time affect speed?

Speed affects distance and time. The faster you go, relative to a stationary object, the more your time slows down and distance shrinks according to the stationary observer. However, you would notice nothing unusual time would progress normally and your distance would be the same according to you. According to you, you would see the stationary observer grow in distance and see there time speed up.
