The electric potential at the surface of an atomic nucleus (Z=50) of radius \(9 \times 10^{-15} m\) is __________.

  1. A 9 volt
  2. B \(9 \times 10^5\) volt
  3. C 80 volt
  4. D \(8 \times 10^6\) volt
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(8 \times 10^6\) volt

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(D)
\(\begin{aligned} V & =\frac{k q}{r} \\ \therefore \quad V & =\frac{k Ze }{r} \\ \therefore \quad V & =\frac{9 \times 10^9 \times 50 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}}{9 \times 10^{-15}} \\ \therefore \quad V & =8 \times 10^6 volt \end{aligned}\)
