Part A The electron in a hydrogen atom spends most of its time 0.53 x 1010 m from the nucleus, whose radius is about 0.88 x 10 5 °m. If each dimension of this atom was increased by the same factor and the radius of the nucleus was increased to the size of a tennis ball, how far from the nucleus would the electron be? Assume that the radius of a tennis ball is 3.0 cm. Express your answer with the appropriate units. Templates Symbols undo reglo reset keyboard shortcuts help Value Units
