The nuclear force between two neutrons in a nucleus

Chapter 8, Problem 8.92

(choose chapter or problem)

The nuclear force between two neutrons in a nucleus isdescribed roughly by the Yukawa potentialU{r) = -U 0j e ~ rlr\where r is the distance between the neutrons and C/0 andr0(~ 10-15m) are constants, (a) Determine the force F(r).(b) What is the ratio F(3r0)/F(r0)? (c) Calculate this sameratio for the force between two electrically charged particleswhere U(r) = C/r, with C a constant. Why is theYukawa force referred to as a short-range force?
