The speed of electron in the innermost orbit of the hydrogen atom is? Bohar radius = 52.9pm given

this is the answer
  • 1
Given 
r=52.9 pm
me=9.11*10-31 kg

we know that,
velocity or speed of the electron in the first orbit of hydrogen is 2.18*108 cm sec-1 or 2.19*10cm sec-1.
now for innermost orbit,velocity or speed of the electron is
s=2.19*108*10-2 m s-1
 =2.19*10m s-1.

The answer is 2.18×10^8cm/s=2.18×10^6m/sec
