Consider the following very rough model of a beryllium atom. The nucleus has four protons and four neutrons confined to a small volume of radius 10-15m. The two 1s electrons make a spherical charge cloud at an average distance of 1.3 × 10-11m from the nucleus, whereas the two 2s electrons make another spherical cloud at an average distance of 5.2 × 10-11m from the nucleus. Find the electric field at:
  1. A point just inside the 1s cloud.
  2. A point just inside the 2s cloud.

The inverse square law in electrostatics is $|\text{F}|=\frac{\text{e}^2}{(4\pi\in_0)\text{r}^2}$ for the force between an electron and a proton. The $\Big(\frac{1}{\text{r}}\Big)$ dependence of |F| can be understood in quantum theory as being due to the fact that the 'particle' of light (photon) is massless. If photons had a mass mp, force would be modified to $|\text{F}|=\frac{\text{e}^2}{(4\pi\in_0)\text{r}^2}\Big[\frac{1}{\text{r}^2}+\frac{\lambda}{\text{r}}\Big].\text{e}\times\text{p}(-\lambda\text{r})$ where $\lambda=\frac{\text{m}_\text{p}\text{c}}{\text{h}}$ and $\text{h}=\frac{\text{h}}{2\pi}$. Estimate the change in the ground state energy of a H-atom if mp were 10-6 times the mass of an electron.
