Answer:
a.Attractive

Explanation:
When it comes to charges, the charges which are alike repel each other and the charges which are different will attract each other.
Here, there is a proton and electron which are different particles hence, they will attract each other.
= Charge of electron and proton = 
r = Distance between them = 997 nm
k = Coulomb constant = 
Force is given by

The force of attraction between the particles will be 
Final velocity = 0, thus final kinetic energy is 0
Initial kinetic energy:
0.5mv²
= 0.5 x 0.48 x 4.08²
= 4.0 J
Decrease in kinetic energy = 4 - 0 = 4 Joules
