The potential energy of the electron in the first Bohr orbit in the hydrogen atom is `-27.2` eV. What is its kinetic energy in the same orbit?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the kinetic energy of the electron in the first Bohr orbit of a hydrogen atom, we can use the relationship between potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE) in this context. ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between potential energy and kinetic energy In a hydrogen atom, the kinetic energy (KE) of the electron is related to its potential energy (PE) by the formula: \[ KE = -\frac{PE}{2} \] This relationship arises from the balance of forces acting on the electron in its orbit. ...
