Question

(a) The electrostatic force (not energy) of attraction between
two oppositely charged objects is given by the equation
F = k1Q1Q2>d22 where k = 8.99 * 109 N@m2>C2, Q1 and
Q2 are the charges of the two objects in Coulombs, and d is
the distance separating the two objects in meters. What is
the electrostatic force of attraction (in Newtons) between an
electron and a proton that are separated by 1.00 * 102 pm?
(b) The force of gravity acting between two objects is given
by the equation F = G1m1m2>d22, where G is the gravitational
constant, G = 6.674 * 10-11N-m2/kg2, m1 and m2 are
the masses of the two objects, and d is the distance separating
them. What is the gravitational force of attraction (in
Newtons) between the electron and proton? (c) How many
times larger is the electrostatic force of attraction?
