Go to the top of page 6 in unit 4 and you will see an example that almost answers the tma question. Just flip the two force laws over and plug in the values on the back of the book. Remember, on the back of the book it states the electric charge of a proton so stick a minus sign in front and you have the electric charge of the electron. Good luck with the course Fellow SM358 student
there is nothing called as an electric force...an electron revolves around a nucleus due to the electrostatic fore of attracion between the electron and the proton....any object , to undergo a circlar motion has to experience a centripetal force, which in the case of the atom is provided by the electrostatic force. Actually there is an electric force of attraction between the electron(s) and proton(S)
The force experienced by a proton in an electric field will be the same as for any other charged particle with the same charge, because the force depends on the charge of the particle and the electric field strength. The charge of a proton is the same as the charge of an electron, just opposite in sign. The mass of the proton being 1836 times greater than the mass of an electron will not affect the force experienced by the proton in the electric field.
Yes, an example of an electrostatic force acting in an atom is a proton attracting an electron. This attraction occurs due to the opposite charges of the proton (positive) and the electron (negative), leading to the electrostatic force of attraction between them.
E=zce^2/4pi r = mv^2 =nhv/w wherer w is the wavelength.zce^2/2w = nhv/w and v= zce^2/2nh = c Alpha/n where Alpha is the Fine Structure Constant 7.2e-3.V= 7.2e-3c/n = 2.16e6/n m/s. The speed of the electron is 2.16 mega m/s when n=1 the lowest level.
Electrons in a hydrogen atom do not collide with the proton due to the electromagnetic forces that balance the attraction between them (proton and electron). The electron orbits the nucleus in defined energy levels, establishing stability within the atom. The probability distribution of an electron's position allows it to be close to the proton without actually colliding with it.

F = QE , F = maelectron has (-Q)proton has (+Q) SO they have same force in magnitude and different directions ..electron has mass = 9*10^-31proton has mass = 1.6*10^-27mass of proton is biggerso the magnitude of acceleration for electron will be bigger ...
There is no significant attraction between neutrons and electrons. Neither the electric force nor the strong nuclear force applies between them. There is an insignificant attraction due to gravity -- the gravity force between an electron one angstrom from a neutron is weaker than the electric force between that same electron and a proton a billion trillion kilometers away.
The charges on proton and electron are equal in magnitude. hence, the electric force F(=eE) on them will be equal in magnitude.Acceleration of electron,ae=F/me=eE/meAcceleration of proton,ap=F/mp=eE/1836meTherefore,ae/ap=1836

You can determine the attractive electrical force between an electron and proton using Coulomb's law. The force is directly proportional to the product of their charges, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The equation is F = k * |q1 * q2| / r^2, where F is the force, k is Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 are the charges of the electron and proton, and r is the distance between them.
The electric force of attraction between a proton and an electron is normally called an electrostatic attraction. This is due to proton being positively charged and electron being negatively charged.
Yes. Since two protons have the same charge they will repel each other.
