Expert Answer
(i) A non-contact force is the one which acts on a body without any physical contact. An example of the same is gravitational force. It is always attractive in nature.
(ii) Gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses of the two interacting bodies and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two. Hence, we can say that the magnitude of force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of separation.
