Physics Question on Conservation of energy
Experimentally it is found that 12.8 eV energy is required to separate a hydrogen atom into a proton and an electron. So the orbital radius of the electron in a hydrogen atom isx9x10−10m. The value of the x is _____.
(1eV = 1.6 x 10-19J, 4π∈01 = 9 x 109 NM2 / C2 and electronic charge = 1.6 x 10-19JC)
Answer
The correct answer is: 16
