Answer:
A. Kinetic energy is converted to electric potential energy, and the proton moves more slowly.
Explanation:
When a moving proton is brought close to a stationary one, the kinetic energy of the moving one is converted to electric potential and the proton moves more slowly.
Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body. A moving proton will possess this form of energy.
Two protons according to coulombs law will repel each other with an electrostatic force because they both have similar charges. This will increase their electric potential energy of both of them.
Potential energy is the energy at rest of a body. As it increases, the motion of a body will be slower and it will tend towards being stationary.

Answer:
Average velocity v = 21.18 m/s
Average acceleration a = 2 m/s^2
Explanation:
Average speed equals the total distance travelled divided by the total time taken.
Average speed v = ∆x/∆t = (x2-x1)/(t2-t1)
Average acceleration equals the change in velocity divided by change in time.
Average acceleration a = ∆v/∆t = (v2-v1)/(t2-t1)
Where;
v1 and v2 are velocities at time t1 and t2 respectively.
And x1 and x2 are positions at time t1 and t2 respectively.
Given;
t1 = 3.0s
t2 = 20.0s
v1 = 11 m/s
v2 = 45 m/s
x1 = 25 m
x2 = 385 m
Substituting the values;
Average speed v = ∆x/∆t = (x2-x1)/(t2-t1)
v = (385-25)/(20-3)
v = 21.18 m/s
Average acceleration a = ∆v/∆t = (v2-v1)/(t2-t1)
a = (45-11)/(20-3)
a = 2 m/s^2
