Условие
There is an electron with its mass that orbits a proton with mass at a radius . If we only assume the Coloumbic attraction,
(a) Write an expression of the total energy and the orbital momentum of the electron.
(b) Rewrite the expression of the total energy in terms of the orbital momentum , both from the part(a).
Use for the electric charge quantity and assume that is incomparably greater than ().
Отговори
- (a)
- (b)
Решение
(a) The potential energy of the electron is
and the kinetic energy
Since the Coloumb force keeps the electron in a centripetal orbit,
Therefore,
The orbital momentum is
(b) From above, we have
Combining with the expression
we obtain
Therefore,
