Problem

In one model of a hydrogen atom, the electron is considered to orbit the nucleus at a distance of 5.29×10−11 m5.29\times10^{-11}\ \text{m}. The electrostatic force between the proton and electron is 8.23×10−7 N8.23\times10^{-7}\ \text{N}, and the mass of the electron is 9.1×10−31 kg9.1\times10^{-31}\ \text{kg}. Calculate the speed of the electron in its orbit around the proton.
