- In the simple Bohr model of the ground state of the hydrogen atom, the electron travels in a circular orbit around a fixed proton. The radius of the orbit is 5.281011m , and the speed of the electron is 2.18106m/s . The mass of an electron is 9.111031kg . What is the force on the electron?arrow_forwardSay you have a point charge of one Coulomb and a hydrogen atom some distance away. Within what distance would the difference of forces on the proton and electron from the Coulomb charge exceed the attraction between the proton and electron that holds the hydrogen atom together.
