A uranium ion and an iron ion are separated by a distance of, R=23.30 nm, as shown in the figure. The uranium atom is singly ionized; the iron atom is doubly ionized.
Calculate the distance r from the uranium atom at which an electron will be in equilibrium. Ignore the gravitational attraction between the particles.
What is the magnitude ?UFU of the force on the electron from the uranium ion?
Newton's universal law of gravitation states that every particle in the
universe attracts every other particle with a force along a line joining them.
The force is directly proportional to the product of their masses and
inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Mathematically, it can be written as
GMm
F
According to this law, when mass of both objects is doubled, the force
r
m
becomes two times larger compared to original
O becomes four times larger compared to original
becomes quarter of the original
O becomes half compared to original
A proton is located at x10-9 m and an
alpha particle is located at x10-9 m. (a)
calculate the force the proton exerts on the alpha
particle. (b) Calculate the force the alpha particle
exerts on the proton.
