Answer:
i. F = 1.3 x
N
ii. The direction of the force of attraction exerted by the proton on the electron is towards the itself (i.e a pull).
Explanation:
Since the given charges are opposite, then the force of attraction is experienced. The force of attraction between the two charges can be determined by:
F = 
where F is the force, k is the constant,
is the charge of the electron,
is the charge on the proton, and d is the distance between them.
So that; k = 9.0 x
N
,
= 1.6 x
C,
= 1.6 x
Thus,
F = 
= 
= 1.3061 x
F = 1.3 x
N
The force between the charges is 1.3 x
N.
ii. The direction of the force of attraction exerted by the proton on the electron is towards the itself.
