- An electron of oxygen and an electron of hydrogen is separated by a distance of 2.3 nm. Find the magnitude of the electrical force between the approximately two particles. Note: the coulomb constant is 9x10^9 N.m^2/C^2.arrow_forwardIn what way or ways would the physical universe be different if protons were negatively charged and electrons were positively charged? Gravity would be a repulsive force instead of an attractive one. Since protons are more massive, the universe would acquire a net negative charge. The value of the Coulomb constant k would change. Like charges would attract, and opposite charges would repel. Atoms would consist of protons orbiting a nucleus composed of electrons and neutrons. There would be no difference other than the sign on the charged particles.arrow_forwardplease help asap!arrow_forward
