The system of two protons and one electron is represented in the given figure.

Charge on proton 1, q1 = 1.6 x 10-19 C

Charge on proton 2, q2 = 1.6 x 10-19 C

Charge on electron, q3 = -1.6 x 10-19 C

Distance between protons 1 and 2, d1 = 1.5 x 10-10 m

Distance between proton 1 and electron, d2 = 1 x 10-10 m

Distance between proton 2 and electron, d3 = 1 x 10-10 m

The potential energy at infinity is zero.
