The complete sentence is the following:
<span>" As the size of the nucleus increases, more NEUTRONS are needed to maintain the attractive force. "

In fact, as the size of the nucleus increases and the number of protons increases, the repulsive electrostatic forces between them increase as well (because the protons have the same electric charge, so they repel each other). In order to hold them together, it is necessary to have more neutrons in the nucleus. In fact, the strong nuclear force acts between protons and neutrons holding them together, like a "glue", and preventing the nucleus from breaking apart due to the repulsive electrostatic force of the protons.</span>

Neutrons

As the size of the nucleus increases, more neutrons are needed to maintain the attractive force.

How much time is required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is
mafiozo [28]

1.3 second of time will be required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 105 km

<h3>What is Speed ?</h3>

Speed is the distance travelled per time taken. It is a scalar quantity. And the S.I unit is meter per second. That is, m/s

In the given question, we want to find how much time is required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 10^5 km.

What are the parameters to consider ?

The parameters are;

  • The distance S = 3.85 × 10^{5} km
  • The Speed of Light C = 3 × 10^{8} m/s
  • The time taken t = ?

Speed = distance S ÷ Time t

Convert kilometer to meter by multiplying it by 1000

C = S/t

3 × 10^{8} =  3.85 × 10^{8} / t

Make t the subject of formula

t = 3.85 × 10^{8} / 3 × 10^{8}

t = 1.2833

t = 1.3 s

Therefore, 1.3 second of time will be required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 105 km
