) What is the electric potential due to the nucleus of hydrogen at a distance of 7.50× 10-11 m? Assume the potential is equal to zero as r→∞. (Express your answer to three significant figures.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

Electric potential, V = 19.2 volts

Explanation:

In this case we need to find the electric potential due to the nucleus of hydrogen at a distance of [tex]7.5\times 10^{-11}\ m[/tex]. For this we must know the concept of electric potential. It is the work done in moving a charged particle in electric field from zero to a particular point. Its formula is given by :

[tex]V=\dfrac{kq}{r}[/tex]

q is the charge of nucleus of hydrogen i.e. proton

[tex]V=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{7.5\times 10^{-11}}[/tex]

[tex]V=19.2\ \text{volt}[/tex]

So, the electric potential due to the nucleus of hydrogen at a given distance is 19.2 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.
