  2. Yukawa potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yukawa_potential

    The potential is monotonically increasing in r and it is negative, implying the force is attractive. In the SI system, the unit of the Yukawa potential is the inverse meter . The Coulomb potential of electromagnetism is an example of a Yukawa potential with the e − α m r {\displaystyle e^{-\alpha mr}} factor equal to 1, everywhere.

  3. Coulomb's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulomb's_law

    In the image, the vector F 1 is the force experienced by q 1, and the vector F 2 is the force experienced by q 2. When q 1 q 2 > 0 the forces are repulsive (as in the image) and when q 1 q 2 < 0 the forces are attractive (opposite to the image). The magnitude of the forces will always be equal.

  4. Casimir effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir_effect

    The force is negative, indicating that the force is attractive: by moving the two plates closer together, the energy is lowered. The presence of ħ shows that the Casimir force per unit area ⁠ F c / A ⁠ is very small, and that furthermore, the force is inherently of quantum-mechanical origin.

  5. Force between magnets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_between_magnets

    Magnets exert forces and torques on each other through the interaction of their magnetic fields.The forces of attraction and repulsion are a result of these interactions. The magnetic field of each magnet is due to microscopic currents of electrically charged electrons orbiting nuclei and the intrinsic magnetism of fundamental particles (such as electrons) that make up the mater

  6. Nuclear force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_force

    Force (as multiples of 10 000 N) between two nucleons as a function of distance as computed from the Reid potential (1968). [1] The spins of the neutron and proton are aligned, and they are in the S angular momentum state. The attractive (negative) force has a maximum at a distance of about 1 fm with a force of about 25 000 N. Particles much ...

  7. Van der Waals force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Waals_force

    In molecular physics and chemistry, the van der Waals force (sometimes van der Waals' force) is a distance-dependent interaction between atoms or molecules. Unlike ionic or covalent bonds, these attractions do not result from a chemical electronic bond; [2] they are comparatively weak and therefore more susceptible to disturbance. The van der ...

    Attractive people earn an average of 3 to 4 percent more than people. By Melissa Stanger Studies have shown that attractive people are usually hired sooner, get promotions more quickly, and are ...

  9. Coulomb barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulomb_barrier

    A positive value of U is due to a repulsive force, so interacting particles are at higher energy levels as they get closer. A negative potential energy indicates a bound state (due to an attractive force). The Coulomb barrier increases with the atomic numbers (i.e. the number of protons) of the colliding nuclei:
