Question

Imagine another universe, where alternate electrons and protons have electric charge with magnitude 5 × 10⁻¹⁹ C but opposite signs. In that universe, an alternate electron and an alternate proton are situated in an "alternate hydrogen atom", separated by a distance of 5.29 × 10⁻¹¹ m. Coulomb's law is valid in that universe, and Coulombs constant is the same as in our universe, 9 × 10⁹N·m²/C². Calculate the magnitude of the electrostatic force exerted on the alternate electron by the alternate proton.
