Answer:

2.304 × 10^-28 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Compute the force on each of two electrons when they are seperated in vaccum by a distance corresponding to the approximate size of an ato. (0.100nm)

Solution

The formula to use is

F = K Qq / r^2

Substitute all the parameters

F = 9 × 10^9 × (1.6 × 10^-19)^2 / (0.1 × 10^-9)^2

F = 2.304 × 10^-28 / 1 × 10^-10

F = 2.304 × 10^-18 N

Therefore, the force between each of the electron is 2.304 × 10^-18 N
