In Rutherford’s nuclear model of the atom, the nucleus (radius about \(10^{-15}~\text{m}\)) is analogous to the sun about which the electron move in orbit (radius \(\approx 10^{-10}~\text{m}\)) like the earth orbits around the sun. If the dimensions of the solar system had the same proportions as those of the atom, then: (The radius of the earth's orbit is about \(1.5\times 10^{11}~\text{m}\). The radius of the sun is taken as \(7\times10^{8}~\text{m}\).)

1. the earth will be closer to the sun than it is actually.
2. the earth will be farther away from the sun than it is actually.
3. the earth remains at the same distance from the sun as it is actually.
4. None of these

A \(10~\text{kg}\) satellite circles earth once every \(2~\text{h}\) in an orbit having a radius of \(8000~\text{km}\). Assuming that Bohr’s angular momentum postulate applies to satellites just as it does to an electron in the hydrogen atom. The quantum number of the orbit of the satellite is:
1. \(2.0\times10^{43}\)
2. \(4.7\times10^{45}\)
3. \(3.0\times10^{43}\)
