In Bohr model of hydrogen atom, the force on the electron depends on the principal quantum number as

A

$F \propto 1/{n^3}$

B

$F \propto 1/{n^4}$

C

$F \propto 1/{n^5}$

D

Does not depend on $n$

Solution

(b) $F \propto \frac{{{v^2}}}{r}$ also $v \propto \frac{1}{n}$ and $r \propto {n^2}$ ==> $F \propto \frac{1}{{{n^4}}}$
