Why is distance important in a uniform electric field?

I'm not actually sure what induction is. In class, there was an example of induction as charging one object negative, then moving it nearby another object, then grounding the not-charged object, then moving the negatively charged object away so that the grounded object ended up with a positive charge. In the end, all I got from that was that induction was some indirect way of making an object charged...what's "induction"?

One of the biggest reasons it's not worth it is because distance really doesn't MATTER and resistance is the relevant proxy for that.
So..E = ΔV/d is like I = V/R ?
