In the Rutherford model of the hydrogen atom, a proton (mass M, charge Q) is the nucleus and an electron (mass m, charge q) moves
around the proton in a circle of radius r. Let k denote the Coulomb force constant (1/4TTE0) and G the universal gravitational constant.
The ratio of the electrostatic force to the gravitational force between electron and proton is:
O kMm/GQq
O kQq/GMm
O GQq/kMm
O GMm/kQq
O kQq/GMmr²

They have developed a technology capable of storing the energy released in electrical storms where 92 lightning strikes are produced every second. In a simplified way, lightning occurs when the potential difference between the cloud and the planet's surface reaches at least 2.6 cross times 10 to the power of 7 volts. The electrical currents generated in lightning are about 3.4 cross times 10 to the power of 4 amperes on average. Determine the average power of 92 lightning strikes produced with these values of potential difference and an electric current.
