In the Bohr's hydrogen atom model,the radius of the stationary orbit is directly proportional to ($n =$ principle quantum number)

The difference between the $n^{th}$ and $(n+1)^{th}$ Bohr radius of an $H$ atom is equal to its $(n-1)^{th}$ Bohr radius. The value of $n$ is:

Four electrons,each of mass $m_{e}$,are in a one-dimensional box of size $L$. Assume that the electrons are non-interacting,obey the Pauli exclusion principle,and are described by standing de Broglie waves confined within the box. Define $\alpha = h^{2} / 8 m_{e} L^{2}$ and $U_{0}$ to be the ground state energy. Then,

The ratio of the radius of the first Bohr orbit to that of the second Bohr orbit of the orbital electron is
