the path of an electron around the nucleus of an atom
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:
Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile, good conductors of heat and electricity. Other properties include: State: Metals are solids at room temperature with the exception of mercury, which is liquid at room temperature (Gallium is liquid on hot days).
Answer:
F_A = 8 F_B
Explanation:
The force exerted by the planet on each moon is given by the law of universal gravitation
F = 
where M is the mass of the planet, m the mass of the moon and r the distance between its centers
let's apply this equation to our case
Moon A
the distance between the planet and the moon A is r and the mass of the moon is 2m
F_A = G \frac{2m M}{r^{2} }
Moon B
F_B = G \frac{m M}{(2r)^{2} }
F_B = G \frac{m M}{4 r^{2} }
the relationship between these forces is
F_B / F_A = 
= 1/8
F_A = 8 F_B
