The mass of a proton is 1 . 67262 × 10 - 27 kg and the mass of an electron is 9 . 10938 × 10 - 31 kg . Show that the mass of a proton is nearly 2000 times the mass of an electron.

Mass of a proton = 1 . 67262 × 10 - 27 kg Mass of an electron = 9 . 10938 × 10 - 31 kg mass of proton mass of electron = 1 . 67262 × 10 - 27 9 . 10938 × 10 - 31 = 1 . 67262 9 . 10938 × 10 - 27 - - 31 = 1 . 67262 9 . 10938 × 10 4 = 0 . 1836151 × 10 4 = 1836 . 151 ≈ 2000 ( approx ) Hence, mass of proton is nearly 2000 times the mass of electron.
