text: Coulomb extended these investigations to the proof of the inverse-square law for electricity and magnetism for the cases of both repulsive and attractive forces.
text: In agreement with Amontons’s work of 1699, Coulomb showed that in general there is an approximately linear relationship between friction and normal force; but he extended the investigation considerably to show complex effects due to difference in load, materials, time of repose, lubrication, velocity, and other considerations.
