The strong force between two nucleons is initially repulsive. However at a distance of around 1 fm the force crosses over and becomes repulsive. The strong nuclear force is only seen to act over short dis...

-First find an equation for the distance travel by car 1. In this case s=5t+50 -Next find an equation for the distance traveled by car 2. Using suvat since constant acceleration (1/2)at^2+ut=s. Substitute...

It's often best to use an equation when asked for definitions like this. In this case, use Ohm's law: R = V/I (where V is potential difference, I is current and R is resistance, measured in ohms)

In the photoelectric effect, the electromagnetic wave is thought to exist as quanta (discrete packets) of energy, called photons. When an EM wave is directed at a metal surface, the photons are absorbed b...

If asked to give the units of some complicated quantity in more basic units, try to think of a physical equation you know that relates the complicated quantity (i.e. energy, units J) to other quantitie...
