Two protons in an atomic nucleus are typically separated by a distance of 2 ✕ 10-15 m. The electric repulsion force between the
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric force between the to protons will be 57.536 N.

Explanation:

We can use Coulomb's law to find out the force, in scalar form, will be:

F \ = \ \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 } \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}.

Now, making the substitutions

d \ = \ 2.00 * 10 ^{-15} \ m,

q_1 = q_2 = 1.60 * 10 ^ {-19} \ C,

\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=8.99 * 10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2},

we can find:

F \ = \ 8.99 * 10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2} \frac{(1.60 * 10 ^ {-19} \ C)^2}{(2.00 * 10 ^{-15} \ m)^2}.

F \ = 57.536 N.

Not so big for everyday life, but enormous for subatomic particles.

Explain why a ball thrown in space could keep moving forever, while a ball thrown here on Earth will come to a stop.
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

In space there is no air resistance. on earth there is

in space there is no opposite forces acting on stopping the ball, so if you throw it it will go on forever.

on earth there is air resistance and gravity, this will pull the ball towards the ground and slow it down.

A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed v leaves the more massive particle (mass m1) at rest
ZanzabumX [31]
<span>1/3 The key thing to remember about an elastic collision is that it preserves both momentum and kinetic energy. For this problem I will assume the more massive particle has a mass of 1 and that the initial velocities are 1 and -1. The ratio of the masses will be represented by the less massive particle and will have the value "r" The equation for kinetic energy is E = 1/2MV^2. So the energy for the system prior to collision is 0.5r(-1)^2 + 0.5(1)^2 = 0.5r + 0.5 The energy after the collision is 0.5rv^2 Setting the two equations equal to each other 0.5r + 0.5 = 0.5rv^2 r + 1 = rv^2 (r + 1)/r = v^2 sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v The momentum prior to collision is -1r + 1 Momentum after collision is rv Setting the equations equal to each other rv = -1r + 1 rv +1r = 1 r(v+1) = 1 Now we have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v r(v+1) = 1 Substitute the value v in the 2nd equation with sqrt((r+1)/r) and solve for r. r(sqrt((r + 1)/r)+1) = 1 r*sqrt((r + 1)/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) = 1 - r r^2*(1+1/r) = 1 - 2r + r^2 r^2 + r = 1 - 2r + r^2 r = 1 - 2r 3r = 1 r = 1/3 So the less massive particle is 1/3 the mass of the more massive particle.</span>

If I keep F constant in F=ma, what is the relationship between m and a?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

If F is a constant, we can take f = 1

f = m×a

ma = 1

therefore we can say that force is hence proportinal to the product of mass and acceleration.
