Question

Now you have a nucleus with 17 protons at x = 5.8 Angstroms on the x-axis. How much work would it take to bring in ANOTHER nucleus with 14 protons from 1 m away and place it at y = 8.0 Angstroms on the y-axis?

Expert Solution

Step 1: Distance

Calculate the distance between the both nuclei.

$table row cell d equals square root of x squared plus y squared end root end cell row cell d equals square root of left parenthesis 5.8 text end text stack text A end text with o on top right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis 8.0 text end text stack text A end text with o on top right parenthesis squared end root cross times fraction numerator 10 to the power of negative 10 end exponent text m end text over denominator 1 text end text stack text A end text with o on top end fraction end cell row cell d equals 9.88 cross times 10 to the power of negative 10 end exponent text m end text end cell end table$
