In a hydrogen atom an electron is orbiting a proton. There are two forces between the electron and the proton. The Gravitational Force FG and the electrostatic Force FE.  What is the factor  FEFG of those two forces. 

Use the following constants to calculate the problem: 

me=9.1*10-31 kg

mp=1.67*10-27 kg

e=1.6*10-19 C

k=8.99*109 Nm2/C2

r=1.01*10-10 m

G=6.67⋅10−11Nm2kg2

Please give your answer FE/FG in FE/FG*1040

ie. for 6.734*1042  please write  673.4
