Answer:

K = 4.43 10⁻¹⁸ J

Explanation:

The energy of the atoms on the surface of the sun is ‘

          E = K + U

where the potential energy is given by

          U = - k q² / r

the total energy is given by the thermal energy

         E = k T

let's substitute in the first equation

         k T = K - k e² / r

       

         K = kT +  k e2 / r

the constant are worth

       k the Boltzmann constant k = 1,381 10-23 J / K

       k the Coulomb cosntnate k = 8.99 109 N m2 / C2

       e the charge of the electron e = 1.6 10-19 C

       r the radius of the hydrogen atom r = 0.0529 10-9 m

let's calculate

          K = 1.381 10⁻²³ 5500 + 8.99 10⁹ (1.6 10⁻¹⁹)² / 0.0529 10⁻⁹

          K = 7.596 10⁻²⁰ + 4.35 10⁻¹⁸

          K = 4.43 10⁻¹⁸ J
