Question

Relation between potential energy and total energy of an electron according to bohr model

Answer 1

according to the Bohr model the relation between potential energy and total energy is ----

1. potential energy for the revolving electron

PE = -kze²/r

2. kinetic energy for the revolving electron

KE = kze²/2r

then the total energy

T.E. = PE+KE
= kze²/2r - kze²/r
TE = - kze²/2r

therefore
PE = 2TE
kze²/r = 2x kze²/2r
