In an atom what particle does the proton repel?
In the nucleus of an atom, the protons repel each other due to their like charges. However, the strong force keeps protons from flying apart, keeping the protons inside the nucleus.
When two objects each have more electrons than protons are brought close to each other they will blank each other?
Repel, because like charges repel each other
Are there two natural elements that repel each other?
No. However, the protons within the atoms of the element will repel each other because they have equal positive charge.
What causes protons and neutrons to be attracted to each other in the nucleus?
When they're very, very close together. Protons and neutrons are not attracted to each other electromagnetically, as neutrons have no electronic charge.Protons and electrons are, as one has a positive and one has a negative charge.Instead, Protons and Neutrons are held together in the nuclei of atoms by the Strong Nuclear Force. The strong force (also called the color force) is the strongest of the four basic forces, but it's only important over extremely short ranges.
Why don't neutrons repell each other?
Neutrons do not have a net electrical charge, in other words they are electrically neutral. On the other hand, electrons have a negative charge, and they do repel each other since like charges repel. This is the same for protons except that protons are positively charged.
What is the effect of the electrostatic forces inside the nucleus?
protons and neutrons repel each other. The protons in the nucleus repel each other...APEX
What does electrostatic force do inside the nucleus?
It causes the protons in the nucleus repel each other.
What is an effect of electrostatic forces inside the nucleus?
protons and neutrons repel each other. The protons in the nucleus repel each other...APEX
How are protons able to touch each other in the nucleus of an atom?
They don't touch each other, they are all blocked by neutrons in the nucleus, that is why protons don't just repel each other and the nucleus doesn't fall apart.
In an atom what particle does the proton repel?
In the nucleus of an atom, the protons repel each other due to their like charges. However, the strong force keeps protons from flying apart, keeping the protons inside the nucleus.
What force of repulsion between protons in the nucleus of small atoms is?
The protons in the nucleus repel each other by the electromagnetic force, but this is nullified by the strong force.
Why don't protons repel each other and explode the nucleus?
The protons in an atomic nucleus do repel each other, but they are held together by the Strong Nuclear Force, which is stronger than the electrical force that pushes them apart. Within the nucleus, the Strong Force is more than 100 times stronger than the electric force.
Protons push away from one another in the nucleus because theu have?
Protons push away from each other because they are both positively charged. Much like the positive ends of magnets repel each other.
Would 2 protons attract or repel each other?
"Opposites attract". So two electrons repel each other.
Do two protons always repel each other?
yes, they repel since they are both positive.
Describe How the nuclear force affects the composition of a nucleus?
The strong nuclear force holds atomic nuclei together, and it must be very strong to overcome the tendency for protons to repel each other. Protons, as you'll recall, are positively charged, and like charges repel.
When two objects each have more electrons than protons are brought close to each other they will blank each other?
Repel, because like charges repel each other
