Question: A hydrogen atom consists of a single electron orbiting a single proton. On average, the electron is 5 . 2 9 1 0 1 1

A hydrogen atom consists of a single electron "orbiting" a single proton. On average, the electron is
5.291011 m
from the proton. Recall that the magnitude of charge of a proton and an electron is
1.601019 C.
What is the magnitude of the force (in N) by the proton on the electron?
N
For comparison, the mass of an electron is
9.111031 kg.
What is the weight (in N) of an electron on Earth?
N
