Both the strong and weak interactions are short range forces of approximately 1 fm.
Two protons are separated by this distance.

Which equation should i use for these two question?

i) The strength of the electrical and gravitational interactions that influence each of
these protons.
ii) The approximate strength of the strong interaction and the weak interaction on each
of these protons.

(i) use the equations for gravitational and electrical force.
(ii) use equations for strong and weak interactions respectively.
... I don't see the confusion here: you will have been given all four during your studies so far.
 
Toponium is a hadron which is the bound state of a valance top quark and a valance antitop quark. Oversimplified presentations often state that top quarks don't form hadrons, because they decay to bottom quarks extremely rapidly after they are created, leaving no time to form a hadron. And, the vast majority of the time, this is true. But, the lifetime of a top quark is only an average lifetime. Sometimes it decays faster and sometimes it decays slower. In the highly improbable case that...
I'm following this paper by Kitaev on SL(2,R) representations and I'm having a problem in the normalization of the continuous eigenfunctions (eqs. (67)-(70)), which satisfy \langle f_s | f_{s'} \rangle = \int_{0}^{1} \frac{2}{(1-u)^2} f_s(u)^* f_{s'}(u) \, du. \tag{67} The singular contribution of the integral arises at the endpoint u=1 of the integral, and in the limit u \to 1, the function f_s(u) takes on the form f_s(u) \approx a_s (1-u)^{1/2 + i s} + a_s^* (1-u)^{1/2 - i s}. \tag{70}...
