Question

The so-called Yukawa potential energy gives a fairly accurate description of the interaction between nucleons (i.e., neutrons and protons, the constituents of the nucleus). The constant r0 is about 1.5 × 10^-15 m and the constant U0 is about 50 MeV. (Use the following as necessary: r, r0, and U0.) U(r) = -r_0 / r U_0 e^(-r/r_0) (a) Find the corresponding expression for the force of attraction. (b) To show the short range of this force, compute the ratio of the force at r = 3r0, 4r0, and 7r0 to the force at r = r0. F(3r0) / F(r0) =
