Respuesta :

B. The gravitational force is much larger than the electrical force for any distance between the particles.

The gravitational force is much larger than the electrical force for any distance between the particles. Then the correct option is B.

What is Columb's law?

The force of attraction between two charges, according to Coulomb's law, is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

The electrical force between the masses,

[tex]\rm F_e = k\dfrac{q_pq_n}{r^2} \\\\\ F_e= 9 \times 10^ 9 \times \dfrac{1.61 \times 10^{-19} \times 0 }{r^2} \\\\ F_e = 0 \ N[/tex]

The gravitational force between the masses is,

[tex]\rm F_g = G \dfrac{m_pm_n}{r^2} \\\\ F_g = 6.67 \times 10^{-34}\times \dfrac{1.673 \times 1.675 }{r^2} \\\\ F_g =\dfrac{ 1.869 \times 10^{-33}}{r^2} \ N[/tex]

From the above calculation, observed that the gravitational force is much larger than the electrical force for any distance between the particles.

Hence the correct option is B.
