According to Bohr’s postulate, the centripetal force \(F\) necessary for the electron of mass \(m\) in a hydrogen atom to revolve in the \(n^{\text{th}}\) circular orbit round the nucleus as the centre is given by
\([e =\) charge on electron, \(h =\) Planck’s constant, \(\varepsilon_0 =\) permittivity of free space\(]\)
