A nucleus that captures a stray neutron must bring the neutron to a stop within the diameter of the nucleus by means of the strong force. That force, which "glues" the nucleus together, is approximately zero outside the nucleus. Suppose that a stray neutron with an initial speed of 1.1 × 10' m/s is just barely captured by a nucleus with diameter d = 1.5 × 1014 m. Assuming that the strong force on the neutron is constant, find the magnitude of that force. The neutron's mass is 1.67 x 1027 kg. %3D Number Units

A freight train consists of two 8.00×105-kg engines and 45 cars with average masses of 5.50×105kg. (a) What force must each engine exert backward on the track to accelerate the train at a rate of 5.00×10−2m/s2 if the force of friction is 7.50×105 N, assuming the engines exert identical forces? This is not a large frictional force for such a massive system. Rolling friction for trains is small, and consequently trains are very energy-efficient transportation systems.
