The gravitational force law, deduced by Newton in the 1660's, is remarkably similar to Coulomb's law. Recall that the universal law of gravitation states that the magnitude of the gravitational force between two masses M1 and M2 separated by a distance R is given by the following equation:. F = G (M1 x M2) / R2
G = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2/kg2
a. Calculate the value of the gravitational force between an electron (mass = 9.11 x 10-31 kg) and a proton (mass is 1836 times greater than the mass of an electron) if the two particles are separated by 3.602 nanometers. (1 nanometer or 1 nm = 1 x 10-9 m)
F= N
b. The force created in the above question is:
1. repulsive
2. attractive

A250-n box is at rest on a frictionless horizotal floor. then a person shoves the box with a non-zero force of magnitude p. which statement best describes the relationship betweeen p and the motion of the box after it was shoved? -the box will not move when p< 250n but otherwise will accelerate at a constant rate that is directly proportional to p - the box will begin moving at a speed that is directly proportional to p, then will gradually slow to a halt -the box will move with constant velocity at a speed that is directly proportional to p -box will accelerate across the floor at a constant rate that is directly proportional to p
