Question
The size of Rutherford's atom is about 0.1 nm.
(a) Calculate the speed of an electron that moves around a proton, based on their electrostatic attraction, if they are separated by 0.1 nm. (answer in m/s)
(b) Calculate the corresponding de Broglie wavelength for Rutherford's electron. (answer in nm)
