Question
Chapter 46, Problem 1OQ
To determine
What are the interaction that affects protons in an atomic nucleus?
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1OQ
All four given options (a)-(d) are correct. All the given interactions will affect protons in an atomic nucleus.
Explanation of Solution
- (a) The nuclear interaction: The nuclear interaction are force that acts between the nucleons inside the atomic nucleus. Protons in an atomic nucleus will be affected by this interaction.
- (b) The weak interaction: It is a short-range force and it affects fermions. Thus, protons in an atomic nucleus will be affected by this interaction.
- (c) The
electromagnetic interaction: This force can be attractive or repulsive and its acts between charged particles. Protons in an atomic nucleus will be affected by this interaction by repelling each other. - (d) The gravitational interaction: This interaction is long-range force and its strength is very much less than the nuclear interaction. It has negligible effects on proton and other elementary particles.
Thus, all four given options (a)-(d) are correct. All the given interactions will affect protons in an atomic nucleus.

A typical carbon nucleus contains 6 neutrons and 6 protons. The 6 protons are all positively charged and in very close proximity, with separations on the order of 10-15 meters, which should result in an enormous repulsive force. What prevents the nucleus from dismantling itself due to the repulsion of the electric force?
a. The attractive nature of the strong nuclear force overpowers the electric force.
b. The weak nuclear force barely offsets the electric force.
c. Magnetic forces generated by the orbiting electrons create a stable minimum in which the nuclear charged particles reside.
d. The attractive electric force of the surrounding electrons is equal in all directions and cancels out, leaving no net electric force.
Q3: The uniform beam has a mass of 50 kg per meter of length. Determine the reactions at the supports.
