How do protons ever fuse together in the presence of the electromagnetic force? There is another force involved here called the

nuclear strong force. It is the strongest of all the forces, but it only acts over extremely small distances before it becomes too weak to matter. If protons and neutrons are able to get close enough to one another, the strong force provides a powerful attractive force that can bind them together in a nucleus, despite the electromagnetic force.

Answer:

The nuclei are moving fast with respect to one another

Explanation:

Protons are found in the nucleus together with the neutrons while the electrons normally revolve round it.

However the protons appears fused in a way when electromagnetic force is applied by the nuclei moving at a very fast speed. This fast speed helps to keep the supposed neutrons fused together.
