QUESTION:
In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, an electron orbits a proton at a distance of . The proton pulls on the electron with an electric force of . How many revolutions per second does the electron make?
ANSWER:Solution Step 1 of 4 The figure given below show the bohr’s model of hydrogen atom, where an electron revolves around the proton in nucleus with an orbital radius of r and with proton mass m. During such a uniform circular motion, there will be a force of attraction between two unlike polarity charges; coulombic force. Which will be equal to the centripetal force.
