Hydrogen atom in a collapsing molecular cloud core

Reference no: EM13312926

if a typical hydrogen atom in a collapsing molecular cloud core starts at a distance of 10,000 astronomical units or au(1.5 x 10^12 km) from the core center falls inward at an average velocity of 1.5 km/s, how many years does it take to reach the newly forming protostar? assume that a year is 3 x 1067 seconds.
