Question

What is the force between two proton’s that are 0.005m apart?

Answer 1

Force,
`F=9.21* 10^(-24)\ N`

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between proton is 0.005 m

It is required to find the force between two protons. Protons have of positive charge of
`1.6* 10^(-19)\ C`. Two protons will have a force of repulsion between them. The force is given by :

`F=(kq^2)/(r^2)\\\\F=(9* 10^9* (1.6* 10^(-19))^2)/((0.005)^2)\\\\F=9.21* 10^(-24)\ N`

So, the force between two protons is
`9.21* 10^(-24)\ N`.
