Answer :
Answer:
2.56 x 10^-9 N
Explanation:
charge on each proton, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C
distance between the two protons, d = 3 x 10^-10 m
The formula for the force between the two charge is given by
[tex]F=\frac{Kq_{1}\times q_{2}}{d^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]F=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{3\times 10^{-10}\times 3 \times 10^{-10}[/tex]
F = 2.56 x 10^-9 N
Thus, the electrostatic force between the two charge is given by 2.56 x 10^-9 N.
