k varies

No, the electrostatic CONSTANT does not vary. That's why they
call it a constant.

but never G:

1. k ***VARIES**** depending on the density(or structure) of the other
charges in the medium (since medium's are made of electrons and
protons) excluding Q&q.

No, it doesn't.

But k will certainly have different values in different media, since it
depends on the total permittivity of the medium.

Sorry... all media manufacturers get thier electrons from the
same supplier.

That's a poor explanation Sue, that link simply explains that "k" is
constant in space THEREFORE FOR THE ELECTRIC FORCE EXCERTED BETWEEN TWO
CHARGES IN ***AIR*** OR ***WATER*** IS *********NOT THE SAME*********
AS THE ELECTRIC FORCE EXCERTED BETWEEN TWO CHARGES IN SPACE: F =
KQq/R^2 (K VARIES WITH THE MEDIUM.....

....MEANING K VARIES WITH THE PRESENCE OF OTHER CHARGES IN THE SAME
REGION WHERE AS "G" DOES NOT VARY WITH THE PRESENCE OF OTHER
OBJECTS(MASSES) IN THE SAME REGION OF M&m (F= GMm/R^2) ).

You just answered your own question so I contend the URL is
effective. ;-)

k is sumed over all space because it is radiative.
G is sumed over all the matter because it is induced.

You have to apply forces to move a mass from moon to earth.
You do not have to apply force to move a charge from one
plate to another plate of a charged capacitor.

So... You see some important difference in the behavior
of fundamental and composite particles ?
