Question

Item 8 Constants Part A The nucleus of a 125 Xe atom (an isotope of the element xenon with mass 125 u) is 6.0 What is the electric force on a proton 4.0 fm from the surface of the nucleus? in diameter. It has 54 protons and charge q +54e (1 fm-1 femtometer = 1 x 10-15 m.) Hint: Treat the spherical nucleus as a point charge Express your answer using two significant figures. nucleus on protorn Submit Previous Answers Request Answer X Incorrect; Try Again; 5 attempts remaining Part B What is the proton's acceleration? Express your answer using two significant figures. 2 proton m/s Submit Request Answer Provide FeedbacK

Explanation / Answer

Taking nucleas as point mass

Distance from charge=10fm

Force=K*q/r^2

Putting the value we got

Force=124.416 N

(b) a=force/mass=7.45*10^28 m/s^2
