Given:
The mass of the electron is,
[tex]m_e=9.1\times10^{-31}\text{ kg}[/tex]The mass of the proton is,
[tex]m_p=1.7\times10^{-27}\text{ kg}[/tex]The gravitational force between the electron and the proton in the hydrogen atom is,
[tex]1.0\times10^{-47}\text{ N}[/tex]To find:
the separation between them
Explanation:
The gravitational force between two masses is,
[tex]F=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}[/tex]Here, the universal gravitational constant is,
[tex]G=6.67\times10^{-11}\text{ Nm}^2kg^{-2}[/tex]Substituting the values we get,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1.0\times10^{-47}=\frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times9.1\times10^{-31}\times1.7\times10^{-27}}{r^2} \\ r^2=\frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times9.1\times10^{-31}\times1.7\times10^{-27}}{1.0\times10^{-47}} \\ r^2=1.03\times10^{-20} \\ r=\sqrt{1.01\times10^{-20}} \\ r=1.01\times10^{-5}\text{ m} \end{gathered}[/tex]
