An alpha particle is a fully ionized helium atom, 42He2+. Itsnet charge is the result of losing two electrons. Suppose a loneelectron is separated from an alpha particle by 1.3×10−10m. Part(a) What is the magnitude of the electric field, due to thealpha particle at the location of the electron, in newtons percoulomb? E = _______N/C What is the magnitude ofthe electric field, due to the electron at the location of thealpha particle, in newtons per coulomb? What is the magnitude ofthe force on the electron due to the alpha particle, in newtons?What is the magnitude of the force on the alpha particle due to theelectron, in newtons?
