Question

Part A When a proton approaches another fixed proton, what happens to the kinetic energy of the approaching proton? O increases O decreases O stays the same Submit My Answers Give Up Part B When a proton approaches another fixed proton, what happens to the electric potential energy of the system? O increases O decreases O stays the same Submit My Answers Give U Part C When a proton approaches another fixed proton, what happens to the total energy of the system? increases O decreases O stays the same

Explanation / Answer

1.

Decreases

Protons Repel each other ,when both protons approach each other they will began to slow down and eventually stop.

2.

Increases

Electric Potential energy

U=KQ2/r

3.

Stays the same
