Homework Statement
The nucleus of a helium atom contains two protons. In a simple model of this nucleus, the protons are viewed as point particles separated by a distance of 1.0 fm (1.0 x 10^-15 m). What is the electric potential energy of the two protons?
please do step by step.

Homework Statement
A particle starts from the origin with velocity 5 m/s at t = 0 and moves in the xy plane with a varying acceleration given by a = (9*squareroot*t)j, where "a" is in meters per second squared and t is in seconds.
Determine the velocity of the particle as a function of...
