What is the work done by an electron revolving in a circular orbit of rdius r around the nucleus?

Here a centripetal force provided by electrostatic force of attraction acts
on the electron towards the centre of orbit but motion is along the tangent to
the circular orbit at ecah point. As force and displacement are in mutually
perpendicular directions at each point, the work done is zero.

The particle that moves around the nucleus is?
Electrons move around the atomic nucleus.
Do electrons travel in definite circular pathway around the nucleus?
No. Electrons travel at will in Electron clouds, At first we thought they were in definite pathways, but they don't. Though Bohr's model is used so we can know roughly how many electrons are in an energy level.
A subatomic particle that circles an atom's nucleus?
Electrons revolve around the nucleus of an atom.
What subatomic particle is in constant motion around the nucleus?
Around the atomic nucleus orbit electrons.
What moves around the nucleus of the atom?
electron cloud
What are the electron found in an atom?
Inside the atom, revolving around the nucleus
What is the total energy of a revolving electron in an atom?
The energy of an electron which is (in a sense) revolving around the nucleus (it is actually distributed around the nucleus in the form of a cloud) depends upon how far it is from the nucleus, and also depends upon the number of protons in the nucleus. Nuclear physics is complicated.
What keep the electron in motion around the nucleus to which it is attracted?
the inter nuclear force of attraction between the nucleus and electron keep it moving in a circular manner around the nucleus
Why are electron always moves around the nucleus?
Due to Uniform Circular Motion.
Where are electron found in an atom and describe their movement?
Electrons are located out side the nucleus in atom, and these are called as extra nuclear particles. Electrons are revolving around the nucleus as planets do round the sun
What did BOHR assume about the motion of the electron?
Bohr proposed that an electron is found only in specific circular paths, or orbits, around the nucleus.
Where are the protons neutrons and electron located in the atom?
Protons and neutrons are located within the nucleus. Electrons are revolving around the nucleus.
Is it possible to stop the electrons revolving around the nucleus?
No, it is not possible to stop the electrons from revolving around the nucleus unless they are stripped off from the nucleus.
Is the electron a nucleon or not?
The term nucleon signifies any particle that is present inside the nucleus of an atom. We know that the nucleus of any atom contains only two particles which are proton and neutron whereas electron are present outside the nucleus revolving around it. Hence, electron is not a nucleon.
How magnetic moment originate from motion of electron?
Electrons revolve around the nucleus. A revolving electron is equivalent to a current loop. Hence, it produces a magnetic moment.
What did Bohr assume about motion of electrons?
Bohr proposed that an electron is found only in specific circular paths, or orbits, around the nucleus.
The parts of an atom?
Well there is protons, electrons, and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus and the electron i outside revolving around it. The number of them depends on what periodic element specifically.
