Electrostatics Question 676
Question: The force of repulsion between two electrons at a certain distance is F. The force between two protons separated by the same distance is $ (m _{p}=1836m _{e}) $
Options:
A) 2F
B) F
C) 1836F
D) $ \frac{F}{1836} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
[b] Electrostatic force is given by $ F=\frac{1}{4\pi {\varepsilon _{0}}}\frac{q _{1}q _{2}}{r^{2}} $
Here, charge and distance are same. So, force between two protons will be same.
