Refraction is a phenomenon which results when a ray of light enters from one medium to another medium. When a ray of light enters from denser medium to rarer medium, it bends away from the normal. The laws of refraction are: The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal all lie in the same plane.

In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, the speed of the electron is approximately 2.2 106 m/s.
Murrr4er [49]

The central force acting on the electron as it revolves in a circular orbit is 9.52 \times 10^{-8} \ N.

The given parameters;

  • <em>speed of electron, v = 2.2 x 10⁶ m/s</em>
  • <em>radius of the circle, r = 4.63 x 10⁻¹¹ m</em>

<em />

The central force acting on the electron as it revolves in a circular orbit is calculated as follows;

F = \frac{M_e v^2}{r} \\\\

where;

M_e is mass of electron = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg

F = \frac{(9.11 \times 10^{-31}) \times(2.2\times 10^6)^2 }{4.63 \times 10^{-11}} \\\\F = 9.52 \times 10^{-8} \ N

Thus, the central force acting on the electron as it revolves in a circular orbit is 9.52 \times 10^{-8} \ N.

Answer:

Electron shell

Nucleus

Neutrons

Explanation:

An atom is made up of three fundamental subatomic particles which are the protons, neutrons and electrons.

  • Protons are the positively charged particles. Neutrons do not carry any charges.
  • Both protons and neutrons are found in the tiny nucleus at the center of that atom.
  • The electrons are negatively charged.
  • They are found outside the nucleus in electronic shells.
