Chapter 21, Problem 69

(choose chapter or problem)

In the radioactive decay of Eq. 21-13, a 238U nucleus transforms to 234Th and an ejected 4 He. (These are nuclei, not atoms, and thus electrons are not involved.) When the separation between 234Th and 4 He is 9.0 1015 m, what are the magnitudes of (a) the electrostatic force between them and (b) the acceleration of the 4 He particle?
