Answer:
Net force on electron will be [tex]12.568\times 10^{-12}N[/tex]
Explanation:
We have given that the orbit [tex]r=4.28\times 10^{-9}m[/tex]
Speed of the electron [tex]v=2.43\times 10^5m/sec[/tex]
Mass of the electron is given as [tex]m=9.11\times 10^{-31}kg[/tex]
Centripetal acceleration is given by [tex]a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{(2.43\times 10^5)^2}{4.28\times 10^{-9}}=1.3796\times 10^{19}m/sec^2[/tex]
Force is given by F = ma
So force [tex]F=9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 1.3796\times 10^{19}=12.568\times 10^{-12}N[/tex]
