Bare free charges do not remain stationary when close together. to illustrate this, calculate the acceleration of two isolated protons separated by 2.00 nm (a typical distance between gas atoms). explicitly show how you follow the steps in the problem-solving strategy for electrostatics.

Currents in dc transmission lines can be 100 a or higher. some people are concerned that the electromagnetic fields from such lines near their homes could pose health dangers. for a line that has current 150 a and a height of 8.0 m above the ground, what magnetic field does the line produce at ground level? express your answer in teslas and as a percentage of the earth’s magnetic field, which is 0.50 g. is this value cause for worry?
