    The electrostatic potential energy between proton and electron separated by a distance \[1\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\] is

    A)  13.6 eV               

    B) 27.2 eV

    C)  14.4 eV               

    D) 1.44eV

    E) 28.8 eV

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[U=\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\frac{{{q}_{1}}{{q}_{1}}}{r}\] \[\therefore \]\[U=\frac{9\times {{10}^{9}}\times (1.6\times {{10}^{-19}})(-1.6\times {{10}^{-19}})}{{{10}^{-10}}}J\] \[=-9\times {{10}^{9}}\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\times {{10}^{10}}eV\] \[=-14.4eV\]
