In one model of a hydrogen atom, the electron is considered to orbit the nucleus at a distance of 5.29×10−115.29 \times 10^{-11} m. The electrostatic force between the proton and the electron is 8.23×10−78.23 \times 10^{-7} N and the mass of the electron is 9.1×10−319.1 \times 10^{-31} kg. Calculate the speed of the electron in its orbit around the proton.
