They actually do. It's just that the mass deficit creates the nuclear binding energy (or nuclear glue) through residual strong interaction (strong force) that overcomes the coulomb force that's trying to push the nucleus apart and keeps it together. The electrostatic repulsion between protons doesn't just disappear when nucleons are fused together to make heavier atomic nuclei. We can see the electrostatic force pushing atomic nuclei apart as we look at the top of the Periodic Table. When we synthesize heavier and heavier elements in the physics lab, they are more and more reluctant to "stay together" and stabilize. And we finally reach a point where we just can't force a super heavy nucleus to even begin to stick together. Not even for the tiniest fraction of a second. Because they are positively charged and like charges repel each other.
What else can I help you with?
In an atom what particle does the proton repel?
In the nucleus of an atom, the protons repel each other due to their like charges. However, the strong force keeps protons from flying apart, keeping the protons inside the nucleus.
Are there two natural elements that repel each other?
No. However, the protons within the atoms of the element will repel each other because they have equal positive charge.
When two objects each have more electrons than protons are brought close to each other they will blank each other?
Repel, because like charges repel each other
Why are electron and protons attracted to each other?
like forces repel, unlike forces attract(:
What effect do protons have on each other?
Protons have a positive charge, so they repel each other due to the electromagnetic force. The closer the protons are to each other, the stronger the repulsion. This repulsion is a key factor in determining the structure and behavior of atomic nuclei.
Is it true that Protons repel other protons in the electromagnetic force?
yes
What is the effect of the electrostatic forces inside the nucleus?
protons and neutrons repel each other. The protons in the nucleus repel each other...APEX
Do two protons always repel each other?
yes, they repel since they are both positive.
Would 2 protons attract or repel each other?
"Opposites attract". So two electrons repel each other.
In an atom what particle does the proton repel?
In the nucleus of an atom, the protons repel each other due to their like charges. However, the strong force keeps protons from flying apart, keeping the protons inside the nucleus.
Protons push away from one another in the nucleus because of the?
"like charges repel".
Why do protons in an atom not separate?
Being positively charged, particles protons should repel each other but they are held together in the nuclei of atoms.
Are there two natural elements that repel each other?
No. However, the protons within the atoms of the element will repel each other because they have equal positive charge.
When two objects each have more electrons than protons are brought close to each other they will blank each other?
Repel, because like charges repel each other
What force of repulsion between protons in the nucleus of small atoms is?
The protons in the nucleus repel each other by the electromagnetic force, but this is nullified by the strong force.
What do protons do at room temperatures and pressures?
repel or bounce off from one another...if it was high temperature and high presure the protons would fuse together
Why are electron and protons attracted to each other?
like forces repel, unlike forces attract(:
