The magnitude of the electric force between an electron and a proton can be calculated using Coulomb's law:
F = k * |q1 * q2| / r^2
where: F is the magnitude of the electric force k is the Coulomb constant (8.9875 * 10^9 N m^2/C^2) q1 and q2 are the charges of the electron and proton respectively (1.6 * 10^-19 C for both) r is the distance between the charges (5.29 * 10^-11 m)
Plugging in the values:
F = (8.9875 * 10^9) * |(1.6 * 10^-19) * (1.6 * 10^-19)| / (5.29 * 10^-11)^2 F = (8.9875 * 10^9) * (2.56 * 10^-38) / (2.79841 * 10^-21) F = 2.29 * 10^-8 N
Therefore, the magnitude of the electric force between an electron and a proton at a distance of 5.29 * 10^-11m is 2.29 * 10^-8 N.

The magnitude of the electric force between a electron and a proton at a distance of r= 5.29- 10^-11m is given by:
F = k - (q1 - q2) / r^2
where:
k is the Coulomb constant, which is 8.98755 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 q1 is the charge of the electron, which is -1.602176634 × 10^-19 C q2 is the charge of the proton, which is 1.602176634 × 10^-19 C r is the distance between the electron and the proton, which is 5.29 × 10^-11 m
Plugging in these values, we get:
F = (8.98755 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2) - (-1.602176634 × 10^-19 C) - (1.602176634 × 10^-19 C) / (5.29 × 10^-11 m)^2 F = 2.307 × 10^-8 N
Therefore, the magnitude of the electric force between a electron and a proton at a distance of r= 5.29- 10^-11m is 2.307 × 10^-8 N.
