In a hydrogen atom, the electron and proton are bound at a distance of about 0.53 A: (a) Estimate the potential energy of the system in eV, if the zero of potential energy is taken at 1.06 overset @A separation of the electron from proton? (b) What is the minimum work required to free the electron, given that its kinetic energy in the orbit is half the magnitude of potential energy obtained in (a)?

In a hydrogen atom, the electron and proton are bound at a distance of about 0.53 A. (a) Estimate the potential energy of the system in eV, taking the zero of the potential energy at infinite separation of the electron from proton. (b) What is the minimum work required to free the electron, given that its kinetic energy in the orbit is half the magnitude of potential energy obtained in (a)?

The potential difference is often define as the work done in displacing the unit charge from one point to another. Accordingly, the potential difference measured in terms of work. Is it so?

Underline the correct alternative :- When a conservative force does positive work on a body, the potential energy of the body increases//decreases//remains unaltered .
