Answer:
E = -8.23 10⁻¹⁷ N / C
Explanation:
In the Bohr model, the electric potential for the ground state corresponding to the Bohr orbit is
E = k q₁ q₂ / r²
in this case
q₁ is the charge of the proton and q₂ the charge of the electron
E = – k e² / a₀²
let’s calculate
E = – 9 10⁹ (1.6 10⁻¹⁹)² / (0.529 10⁻¹⁰)²
E = -8.23 10⁻¹⁷ N / C
