To find the speed of the electron outside the atom, we can use the conservation of momentum and energy principles.Given:- Energy of the photon, E = 17.7 eV- Mass of the electron, m = 9.11 × 10^-31 kgFirst, we need to convert the energy of the photon to joules:E = 17.7 eV × 1.602 × 10^-19 J/eV = 2.83 × 10^-18 JNext, we can use the conservation of momentum to find the speed of the electron. The momentum of the photon is given by p = E/c, where c is the speed of light.p = E/c = (2.83 × 10^-18 J) / (3 × 10^8 m/s) = 9.43 × 10^-21 kg·m/sSince the photon and electron are initially at rest, the total momentum before the collision is zero. After the collision, the total momentum is the momentum of the electron plus the momentum of the hydrogen atom.Let v be the speed of the electron after the collision. The momentum of the electron is given by p_e = m·v.p_e = m·v = (9.11 × 10^-31 kg) × vThe momentum of the hydrogen atom is given by p_H = M·v_H, where M is the mass of the hydrogen atom and v_H is the speed of the hydrogen atom.p_H = M·v_H = (1.67 × 10^-27 kg) × v_HSince the total momentum before the collision is zero, the total momentum after the collision is also zero:p_e + p_H = 0(9.11 × 10^-31 kg) × v + (1.67 × 10^-27 kg) × v_H = 0v_H = -(9.11 × 10^-31 kg) × v / (1.67 × 10^-27 kg)Now, we can use the conservation of energy to find the speed of the electron. The energy of the photon is converted into the kinetic energy of the electron and the hydrogen atom:E = (1/2)·m·v^2 + (1/2)·M·v_H^2Substituting the values, we get:2.83 × 10^-18 J = (1/2)·(9.11 × 10^-31 kg)·v^2 + (1/2)·(1.67 × 10^-27 kg)·v_H^2Substituting v_H from the previous equation:2.83 × 10^-18 J = (1/2)·(9.11 × 10^-31 kg)·v^2 + (1/2)·(1.67 × 10^-27 kg)·[(-(9.11 × 10^-31 kg) × v / (1.67 × 10^-27 kg))^2]Solving this equation for v, we get:v ≈ 2.18 × 10^6 m/sTherefore, the speed of the electron outside the atom is approximately 2.18 × 10^6 m/s.
