Protons and neutrons (together called nucleons) are held together in the nucleus of an atom by a force called the strong force. At very small separations, the strong force between two nucleons is larger than the repulsive electrical force between two protons--hence its name. But the strong force quickly weakens as the distance between the protons increases. A well-established model for the potential energy of two nucleons interacting via the strong force is U=U0[1−e−x/x0] where x is the distance between the centers of the two nucleons, x0 is a constant having the value x0 = 2.0 × 10−15 m, and U0 = 6.0 × 10−11 J. Quantum effects are essential for a proper understanding of nucleons, but let us innocently consider two neutrons as if they were small, hard, electrically neutral spheres of mass 1.67 ×10−27 kg and diameter 1.0 × 10−15 m. Suppose you hold two neutrons 9.0 × 10−15 m apart, measured between their centers, then release them.What is the speed of each neutron as they crash…
The figure here shows a plot of potential energy U versus position x of a 0.898 kg particle that can travel only along an x axis. (Nonconservative forces are not involved.) Three values are UA = 15.0 J, UB = 35.0 J and Uc = 45.0 J. The particle is released at x = 4.50 m with an initial speed of 7.52 m/s, headed in the negative x direction.
