Problem 3. Find the force (in newtons) exerted by a water molecule (dipole moment P = 6.225-10-30 C-m) on a carbon atom (polarizability a=1.863-10-40 C².m/N) at a distance r = 1 um if the dipole moment of the water molecule is oriented along the line that joins the molecule with the atom, and if it is perpendicular to this line. Problem 3. Find the force (in newtons) exerted by a water molecule (dipole moment P = 6.225-10-30 C-m) on a carbon atom (polarizability a=1.863-10-40 C².m/N) at a distance r = 1 um if the dipole moment of the water molecule is oriented along the line that joins the molecule with the atom, and if it is perpendicular to this line.
