suppose you're experimenting with two electrically charged tomatoes?

a.First, you double the distance between them, without changing the charges. Will the electrostatic force exerted by one tomato on the other also double, or change by a different factor? By how much and why?
b.Next, you double the magnitude of the charges on both of them, but keep the distance fixed. This time, will the electrostatic force also double, or change by a different factor? By how much and why?
