The hydrogen atom consists of a single electron (mass 9.1 x 10 –31 kg) and a proton (mass 1.7 x 10
–27 kg) at an average separation distance of 5.3 x 10 –11 m. Compare the electrical and gravitational force between the proton and the electron in a hydrogen atom.

A hydrogen atom when in its lowest energy state consists of a proton nucleus of charge +e (remember that +e = 1.6 x 10-19 C) and an electron of charge -e and mass of
9.1 x 10-31 kg. In the Bohr model of the atom, the electron moves around the nucleus in an approximately circular orbit with a radius of 0.52 x 10-10 m. The speed of the
electron when in this lowest energy orbit is approximately 2.3 x 106 m/s.
Imagine that we want to ionize this atom (that is free up the electron from its nucleus) by launching ANOTHER electron at the atom to break it apart. If we were to launch
this electron from very far away from the atom, then how fast must it be launched in order to break apart the atom, so that all three particles (the proton and two
electrons) end up at rest, very far apart?
