Question
Two protons and two electrons are hanging freely at equal distances. Compare the repulsion force between proton and electron.

Answer

The repulsion forces between two protons and two electrons will be equal because the magnitude of charge on the proton and electron is equal and the distances between them are also equal.

The magnetic field inside a tightly wound, long solenoid is $\text{B}=\mu_0\text{ni}.$ It suggests that the field does not depend on the total length of the solenoid, and hence if we add more loops at the ends of a solenoid the field should not increase. Explain qualitatively why the extra-added loops do not have a considerable effect on the field inside the solenoid.
