Scattering of Particles. Rutherford-Bohr Atom

Problem 6.21

A particle of mass \(m\) moves along a circular orbit in a centrosymmetrical potential field \(U(r)=k r^{2} / 2\). Using the Bohr quantization condition, find the permissible orbital radii and energy levels of that particle

Reveal Answer
 6.21. rn=n/mω,En=nω, where n=1,2,.,ω==k/m.\begin{aligned} \text { 6.21. } r_{n}=\sqrt{n \hbar / m \omega}, & E_{n}=n \hbar \omega, \text { where } n=1,2, \ldots ., \omega=\\ =& \sqrt{k / m} . \end{aligned}
