Adding a proton to a nucleus The nucleus of an atom is positively charged because it consists of positively charged protons and uncharged neutrons.

Find the work required to bring a free proton (assumed to be a point mass) from a large distance (r → ∞) to the edge of a nucleus that has a charge Q = 50q and a radius of 6 × 10-11 m.
