One object could be the usual charged point particle and the
other could be a charged non-conducting ring? Wouldn't THAT
satisfy Ludwik's point?
In my opinion the answer is NO. If the 1/r^2 laws are valid then
the magnitude of the net electric force is equal to the magnitude
of the net gravitational force at any distance, even when the
point-like particle is in the center of the ring (0=0).
