Question 166017
The mass of an electron is 9.109x10(-31power)kg. The mass of a proton is 1.673x10(-27power)kg. How many times heavier is a proton than a electron.
:
{{{(1.673(10^-27))/(9.109(10^-31))}}} = {{{.18366(10^(-27+31))}}} = {{{.18366(10^4)}}} = {{{1.8366(10^3)}}}
:
We can say that the proton is 1837 times heavier than the electron
