Question

GOAL Contrast the magnitudes of an electric force and a gravitational force. PROBLEM The electron and proton of a hydrogen atom are separated (on the average) by a distance of about 5.3 3 10211 m. (a) Find the magnitudes of the electric force and the gravitational force that each particle exerts on the other, and the ratio of the electric force Fe to the gravitational force Fg . (b) Compute the acceleration caused by the electric force of the proton on the electron. Repeat for the gravitational acceleration. STRATEGY Solving this problem is just a matter of substituting known quantities into the two force laws and then finding the ratio
