How does the strong nuclear force between two nucleons varies with separation of the nucleons. Please detail the range over which the force acts.

The strong nuclear force is a fundamental force that binds quarks together to form nucleons. The force between nucleons is repulsive between similar nucleons (i.e. protons) before becoming attractive and ...

find and symplify the following. Integrate ( 2x^5 - 1/(4x^3)- 5 )dx

first the second term can be split up to make integrating it easierits easier if the x3 component is separatedthis eventually simplifies the second term to (-1/4) * x-3so now the que...

a ball is dropped from rest off a cliff of height 50m, determine the final velocity of the ball assuming no air resistance.

Consider the appropriate equation of motion to solve this (use SUVAT method). The equation v^2=u^2+2as is appropriate to solve. Substituting in the knowns gives v=+sqrt(29.8150)=31.32 wh...

Asteroid of mass 10^16 kg is travelling in the equatorial plane of Earth. It hits the surface at 45°. After the impact the day shortens by 1% (15 mins). How fast was the asteroid - comment? Neglect effects of atmosphere. Consider only inelastic collision.

Key idea - total angular momentum of the system is conserved. Before the collision: angular momentum of earth is given by LE=IwE, here wE is the angular velocity of Ea...

If a vehicle A, 1000kg moving at 5m/s collides with vehicle B, 750kg, moving in the opposite direction at 8m/s assuming no rebound what is the velocity of the vehicles after collision.

for this question we must consider the conservation of momentum law which states that the total momentum in a system before a collision must equal the total momentum in a system after a collision where mo...
