Experiments indicate that an energy of 13.6 eV is required to separate a hydrogen atom into a proton and an electron. That is, its total energy is E = -13.6 eV. Find the radius of the orbit and the velocity of the electron in a hydrogen atom; using the equations of Modern Physics.

In the classical model of a hydrogen atom, an electron orbits a proton with a kinetic energy of $+13.6 \mathrm{eV}$ and an electric potential energy of $-27.2 \mathrm{eV} .(\mathrm{a})$ Use the kinetic energy to calculate the classical orbital speed. (b) Use the electric potential energy to calculate the classical orbital radius.
