Bohr’s atomic model differed from Rutherford's because it explained that electrons exist in specified energy levels surrounding
insens350 [35]

Answer:

electrons exist in specified energy levels

Explanation:

In its gold-foil scattering with alpha particles, Rutherford proved that the plum-pudding model of the atom theorised by Thomson was wrong.

From his experiment, Rutherford inferred that the atom actually consists of a very small nucleus, where all the positive charge is concentrated, and the rest of the atom is basically empty, with the electrons (negatively charged) orbiting around the nucleus at very large distance.

However, Rutherford did not specify anything about the orbits of the electrons. Later, Bohr predicted that the electrons actually orbit the nucleus in specific orbits, each orbit corresponding to a specific energy level. Bohr's model found confirmation in the observation of the emission spectrum lines: when an electron in one of the higher energy level jumps down into an orbit with lower energy, the atom emits a photon which has an energy exactly equal to the difference in energy between the two orbits (and this energy of the photon corresponds to a precise wavelength).

A point charge of 9.00 × 10−9 C is located at the origin of a coordinate system. A positive charge of 3.00 × 10−9 C is brought i
dlinn [17]

A point charge is located at the origin of a coordinate system. A positive charge is brought in from infinity to a point. The charges are at distance for given electrical potential energy is 3.34 x  10⁷ m.

<h3>What is electric potential energy?</h3>

The electric potential energy is the work done by a test charge to bring it from infinity to a particular location.

The electric potential energy is given by the relation,

V = kQ/r

where k = 9 x 10⁹ J.m/C ,Q = 3 x 10⁻⁹ C, V =8.09 × 10⁻⁷ J.

Substitute the values into the expression to get the distance between the charges.

8.09 × 10⁻⁷ =  9 x 10⁹ x  3 x 10⁻⁹ / r

r =3.34 x  10⁷ m

Thus, the distance between the charges will be 3.34 x  10⁷ m.
