Give the relationship between orbital radius and velocity of an electron for a hydrogen atom.

In a hydrogen atom,the electron revolves around the nucleus in an orbit of radius $0.53 \times 10^{-10} \, m$. The electrical potential produced by the nucleus at the position of the electron is......$V$

In an atom,two electrons move around the nucleus in circular orbits of radii $R$ and $4R$. The ratio of the time taken by them to complete one revolution is:

The Bohr model for the $H$-atom relies on Coulomb's law of electrostatics. Coulomb's law has not been directly verified for very short distances of the order of $\mathring{A}$. Suppose Coulomb's law between two opposite charges $+q_1$ and $-q_2$ is modified to $|\vec{F}| = \frac{q_1 q_2}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \left( \frac{1}{r^2} \right)$ for $r \ge R_0$ and $|\vec{F}| = \frac{q_1 q_2}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \left( \frac{1}{R_0^{2-\epsilon} r^{\epsilon}} \right)$ for $r < R_0$. Calculate the ground state energy of an $H$-atom,given $\epsilon = 0.1$ and $R_0 = 1 \,\mathring{A}$.
