Let be $f(x)=frac{sqrt{x}}{sqrt{a}}$, where a is a positive integer. My question is if there could be two points $(n,f(n))$ and $((n+1),f(n+1))$ whose distance is a prime number, where $n=0,1,2,3,4,5,6...$ and in particular for a given $a$ which is the lowest value of $n$ for which the distance between the two points is a prime value.

    Welcome to MSE. Please give some context, in particular, tell us what you've tried so far, including anything in particular you had difficulty with. Also, letting us know where this problem comes from would be helpful. Thanks. Also, I believe I've solved it to show the distance is never integral, much less a prime number. If you show what you've done, I can compare it with what I've done & possibly help you finish the solution.
