230 Newton

Electric charge consists of two types i.e. positively electric charge and negatively electric charge.There was a famous scientist who investigated about this charges. His name is Coulomb and succeeded in formulating the force of attraction or repulsion between two charges i.e. :

F = electric force (N)

k = electric constant (N m² / C²)

q = electric charge (C)

r = distance between charges (m)

The value of k in a vacuum = 9 x 10⁹ (N m² / C²)

F = k(q1 q2)/ r^2

Distance between protons = d = 10⁻¹⁵ m

charge of proton = q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Here q1=q2

electric force = F =230N

Coulomb's Law. Two protons in an atomic nucleus are typically separated by a distance of 2×10−15m. The electric repulsive force between the protons is huge, but the attractive nuclear force is even stronger and keeps the nucleus from bursting apart.

2 Nuclei and the Need for an Attractive Nuclear Force. The Coulomb force also acts within atomic nucleii, whose characteristic dimension is 10 m, which is called a fermi. There are two protons in a He nucleus, which repel each other because of the Coulomb force.

The product of m1m2 in the formula for gravitational force is always
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The correct answer is the second option

Explanation:

The formula in question (for gravitational force) is provided below

F = G.m₁.m₂/r²

Where

F = force of gravity

G = gravity constant (6.674 × 10⁻¹¹ m.kg⁻¹.s⁻²)

m₁ and m₂ = are the masses of the objects

r² = distance between the centers of the two objects

From the above, <u>it can be deduced that m₁ and m₂ are masses and hence can only be positive. Positives multiplied together only gives positive, thus the second option is correct.</u>
