Considering electron and proton as two charged particles separated by d = 4.5 × 10-11 m calculate the electrostatic potential at a distance d from the proton. Take the mass of the proton 1.7 x 10-27 kg, the mass of the electron 9.1 x 10-31 kg, the electron charge -1.6 × 10-19 C and 1 Απερ = 9 × 10⁹ m/F.
