Answer:

Product

Step-by-step explanation:

The force between two charges is given by :


F=(kq_1q_2)/(r^2) ...(1)

Where

k is electrostatic constant

q₁ and q₂ are charges

r is the distance between charges

From equation (1), it is clear that the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the product of charges.
