QUESTION:

In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, an electron (mass \(m=9.1 \times 10^{-31} \mathrm{~kg}\) ) orbits a proton at a distance of \(5.3 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{~m}\). The proton pulls on the electron with an electric force of \(8.2 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{~N}\). How many revolutions per second does the electron make?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

Here we have to calculate the number of revolutions per second the electron makes around the proton.

The mass of the electron is,

                                              \(m_{e}=9.1 \times 10^{-31} \mathrm{~kg}\)

The distance between the proton and electron is,

                                              \(r=5.3 \times 10^{-11} m\)

The electric force between them is,

                                            \(F_{e l}=8.2 \times 10^{-8} N .\)
