Answer:
Ok first what is the weight of a proton and how do we find the force between two of them?
W = m*g F = kq*q/r^2
(Since the are both protons, both q's are the same)
Now we set these two forces equal to each other and solve for r, the separation distance:
=m*g
= kq*q/r^2 m*g*r^2
= kq^2 r^2
= kq^2 / mg r
= sqrt( kq^2 / mg)
Where k = 8.99x10^9 Nm^2/C^2
q = 1.60x10^-19 C (elementary charge)
g = 9.8 m /s^2 (acceleration due to gravity...I took 9.8)
m = 1.67x10^-27 kg (proton mass)
r = 0.1186 m
