MCQ
An oil drop having charge $2 e$ is kept stationary between two parallel horizontal plates $2.0 \ cm$ apart when a potential difference of $12000$ volts is applied between them. If the density of oil is $900 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^3$, the radius of the drop will be
  • A
    $ 2.0 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}$
  • $ 1.7 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}$
  • C
    $ 1.4 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}$
  • D

The binding energy of a H-atom, considering an electron moving around a fixed nuclei (proton), is $\text{B}=-\frac{\text{me}^4}{8\text{n}^2\epsilon_0^2\text{h}^2}$. (m = electron mass).
If one decides to work in a frame of reference where the electron is at rest, the proton would be moving arround it. By similar arguments, the binding energy would be,
$\text{B}=-\frac{\text{me}^4}{8\text{n}^2\epsilon_0^2\text{h}^2}$ (M = proton mass)
