Question

Please explain clearly.

Part 1

a. Nuclear fission is a process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two almost the same pieces. Let's say that a nucleus that is (4.59*10^-14 m ) away from the fragment. Calculate the electric potential energy, in pJ, for two fragments of a nucleus that each contain 40 protons?

b. Suppose that 3-dimensional space contains an electric potential which is given by the equation as shown below. We are also given that the units of x, y, and z are all meters, and the unit of V is volt. V (x,y,z) = y² +3xy+3x²yz².

Determine the magnitude of the electric field at the point (2.1,1,1) of this space.
