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.

Maybe this would help understand it better.

<span>Tectonic plates can transport both continental crust and oceanic crust, or they may be made of only one kind of crust. Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. At a subduction zone, the oceanic crust usually sinks into the mantle beneath lighter continental crust</span>

When would the temperature and thermal energy of an object differ?
kodGreya [7K]

The difference between temperature and thermal energy is that temperature measures the average kinetic speed of molecule and thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all particles in a given substance.

Inessa [10]
Maybe because all of them come from natural elements (sun, air and water)
