Question
Chapter 11, Problem 11.64E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The validation of the fact that the gravitational potential energy is negligible as compared to the electrostatic potential energy
Concept introduction:
The work required to bring the charges together from an infinite distance to form the defined system is called electrostatic potential energy.
The electrostatic potential energy is calculated by using the formula,
The electrostatic potential energy depends on the distance between the nucleus and electron and not on the angles.

A hydrogen atom consists of a proton and an electron. According to the Bohr theory, the electron revolves about the proton in a circle of radius a (a = 5 · 10−9cm for the ground state). According to quantum mechanics, the electron may be at any distance r (from 0 to ∞) from the proton; for the ground state, the probability that the electron is in a volume element dV , at a distance r to r + dr from the proton, is proportional to e−2r/adV , where a is the Bohr radius. Write dV in spherical coordinates (see Chapter 5, Section 4) and find the density function f(r) so that f(r) dr is the probability that the electron is at a distance between r and r + drfrom the proton. (Remember that the probability for the electron to be somewhere must be 1.) Computer plot f(r) and show that its maximum value is at r = a; we then say that the most probable value of r is a. Also show that the average value of r−1 is a−1.
if n=3, what is the maximum allowed value for l?
Suppose that the microwave radiation has a wavelength of 12.4 cm. How many photons are required to heat 285 mL of coffee from 25.0 ∘C∘C to 62.0 ∘C∘C? Assume that the coffee has the same density, 0.997 g mL−1, and specific heat capacity, 4.184 J g−1 K−1, as water over this temperature range.
Express the number of photons numerically.
