if two neutrons are placed at adistanc of 1cm , then they experiance a force.

but, my Q. is if they are neutral how they will produce electric field ??

if not , why they experiance aforce??????

plz tell me................

ITS NOT A ELECTROSTATIC FORCE IT IS D NUUCLEAR FORCE

sandesh1

but strength of nuclear force is 10raise to -15.
here strength is 10raise to -2....

10^-15 is not the order of strength of nuclear force.........it is the distance in meters up to which it is effective b/w the particles.........and the ans. to ur qn. is ~because of nuclear forces~ .......nuclear forces are much stronger than electrostatic forces......that is the reason why protons exist together inside the nucleus(it can also be explained through pi-meson theory)...............got it?

neutral species donot produce electric field , whatever force of attraction is there b/w the two neutrons would be only "gravitational" forece of attraction. Not electrostatic.

harsha_27

but "only gravitational force" cannot explain the stability of the nucleus under high electrostatic repulsions.
