According to Bohr's theory,the expressions for the kinetic and potential energy of an electron revolving in an orbit are given respectively by:

  • A
    $ + \frac{{{e^2}}}{{8\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$ and $ - \frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$
  • B
    $ + \frac{{8\pi {\varepsilon _0}{e^2}}}{r}$ and $ - \frac{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}{e^2}}}{r}$
  • C
    $ - \frac{{{e^2}}}{{8\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$ and $ - \frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$
  • D
    $ + \frac{{{e^2}}}{{8\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$ and $ + \frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$
