Protons and neutrons are packed together in a very small region called nucleus. Protons are positively charged and we know that like charges repel. Then how is it that protons are not repelling each other and flying away from nucleus?
You may think that gravitational force is holding all the protons together but it is not so. Gravitational force is many times weaker than repulsive force.
It is actually strong force which holds proton together. At this short distance, strong force comes into play and is several times stronger than the repulsive force.
Answer:
F₂= 210 pounds
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
Hooke's law
Hooke's law establishes that the elongation (x) of a spring is directly proportional to the magnitude of force (F) applied to it, provided that said spring is not permanently deformed:
F= K*x Formula (1)
Where;
F is the magnitude of the force applied to the spring in Newtons (Pounds)
K is the elastic spring constant, which relates force and elongation. The higher its value, the more work it will cost to stretch the spring. (Pounds/inch)
x the elongation of the spring (inch)
Data
The data given is incorrect because if we apply them the answer would be illogical.
The correct data are as follows:
F₁ =80 pounds
x₁= 8 inches
x₂= 21 inches
Problem development
We replace data in formula 1 to calculate K :
F₁= K*x₁
K=( F₁) / (x₁)
K=( 80) / (8) = 10 pounds/ inche
We apply The formula 1 to calculate F₂
F₂= K*x₂
F₂= (10)*(21)
F₂= 210 pounds
I say that the answere would be B
The answer is the first one. That's because the general theory of relativity is the thing experiencing whatever is experiencing relative to something else. The second answer is just plain wrong. The third answer is just a constant, and doesn't relate to experiencing anything. And the fourth answer is a force between two objects, and it has no second comparison. The first answer is how a subject experiences two different things.
