Just part I

Computer science. You are a scientist working at Los Alamos National Labs during WWII and your job is to study the stability of an atomic material consisting of Argon atoms. You will initialize a uniform 2D lattice of 25 Argon atoms and plot it using the built in MATLAB scatter function (Part I), compute the potential energy and forces of the system using the supplied MATLAB function vanderWaals (Part II), move each atom 5000 times using an algorithm called molecular dynamics (Part III) and finally summarize the energetic and structural results for your boss Edward Teller (Part IV). Initialize the X and Y Cartesian coordinates for 25 argon atoms into a 2D grid using two arrays named V and The spacing between atomic centers should be exactly 3.8 Angstroms along both the X-and Y-axes. Plot the result using the MATLAB scatter function
