Two positrons $(e^+)$ and two protons $(p)$ are kept on four corners of a square of side $a$ as shown in the figure. The mass of a proton is much larger than the mass of a positron. Let $q$ denote the charge on the proton as well as the positron. Then,the kinetic energies of one of the positrons and one of the protons,respectively,after a very long time will be:

  • A
    $\frac{{{q^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}a}}\left( {1 + \frac{1}{{2\sqrt 2 }}} \right),\frac{{{q^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}a}}\left( {1 + \frac{1}{{2\sqrt 2 }}} \right)$
  • B
    $\frac{{{q^2}}}{{2\pi { \in _0}a}},\frac{{{q^2}}}{{4\sqrt 2 \pi { \in _0}a}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{{q^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}a}},\frac{{{q^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}a}}$
  • D
    $\frac{{{q^2}}}{{2\pi { \in _0}a}}\left( {1 + \frac{1}{{4\sqrt 2 }}} \right),\frac{{{q^2}}}{{8\sqrt 2 \pi { \in _0}a}}$
