At the Point of Fission, a Nucleus of U-238, with 92

Short Answer

At the point of fission, a nucleus of U-238, with 92 protons is divided into two smaller spheres each with 46 protons and a radius of 5.9 × 10−¹⁵ m. What is the repulsive force pushing the two spheres apart when they are just touching one another? (The mass of the U-238 nucleus is 3.98 × 10−²⁵ kg.)
