Two protons are 1.0 fm1.0\,\text{fm} apart. Using k=9.0×109 N m2/C2k=9.0\times10^{9}\,\text{N\,m}^2\text{/C}^2, e=1.6×10−19 Ce=1.6\times10^{-19}\,\text{C}, G=6.67×10−11 N m2/kg2G=6.67\times10^{-11}\,\text{N\,m}^2\text{/kg}^2 and mp=1.67×10−27 kgm_p=1.67\times10^{-27}\,\text{kg}, find the ratio of the magnitude of the electrostatic repulsive force to the gravitational attractive force between them.
