Answer: option A. strong nuclear force.

Explanation:

The diagram shows the subatomic particles inside the nucelous: protons and neutrons.

As you know, the protons are positively charged partilces inside the nucleous.

Being those particles charged with the same kind of charge they experiment electrostatic repulsion. So, how do you explain that they can stand together in such small space as it is the nucleous?

The responsible of keeping the subatomic particles together is the so called strong nuclear force.

Strong nuclear force or simply strong force is one of the four fundamental interactions or forces: i) gravitational, ii) electromagnetic, iii) weak nuclear force, and iv) strong nuclear force.

Strong nuclear force is the strongest force of nature and acts only in short distances as those inside the nucleous and is responsible for both the atraction among quarks and the atraction among protons to bind them together inside the atomic nucleous.

Atomic physicists usually ignore the effect of gravity within an atom. To see why, we may calculate and compare the magnitude of

STatiana [176]

Answer:

$2.27\cdot 10^{49}$

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the proton and the electron is given by

$F_G=G\frac{m_p m_e}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

$m_p$ is the proton mass

$m_e$ is the electron mass

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

$F_G=(6.67259\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg s^{-2})\frac{(1.67262\cdot 10^{-27}kg) (9.10939\cdot 10^{-31}kg)}{(3 m)^2}=1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N$

The electrical force between the proton and the electron is given by

$F_E=k\frac{q_p q_e}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb constant

$q_p = q_e = q$ is the elementary charge (charge of the proton and of the electron)

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

$F_E=(8.98755\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})\frac{(1.602\cdot 10^{-19}C)^2}{(3 m)^2}=2.56\cdot 10^{-19}N$

So, the ratio of the electrical force to the gravitational force is

$\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{2.56\cdot 10^{-19} N}{1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N}=2.27\cdot 10^{49}$

So, we see that the electrical force is much larger than the gravitational force.

Air "breaks down" when the electric field strength reaches 3 × 106 n/c, causing a spark. A parallel-plate capacitor is made from

Lera25 [3.4K]

Electric field between the plates of parallel plate capacitor is given as

$E = \frac{Q}{A\epsilon_0}$

here area of plates of capacitor is given as

$A = 0.055 * 0.055$

$A = 3.025 * 10^{-3}$

also the maximum field strength is given as

$E = 3 * 10^6 N/C$

now we will plug in all data to find the maximum possible charge on capacitor plates

$3 * 10^6 = \frac{Q}{3.025 * 10^{-3}*8.85 * 10^{-12}}$

$Q = 8.03 * 10^{-8} C$

so the maximum charge that plate will hold will be given by above
