Question

the mass to change ratio of the proton is found to be 1.044×10¯⁸KG/C.the change on the proton is 1.602×10¯¹⁹C.calculate the mass of proton.​

Answer 1

1.54 x 10⁻¹¹kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The charge to mass ratio is given as:

1.044 x 10⁻⁸kg/C

Charge on the proton = 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹C

So;

`(e)/(m)` is the charge to mass ration

e is the charge

m is the mass

1.044 x 10⁻⁸kg/C =
`(1.602 x 10^(-19) )/(m)`

m =
`(1.602 x 10^(-19) )/(1.044 x 10^(-8) )` = 1.54 x 10⁻¹¹kg
